The Powder Toy

Problem Saving

  • Mushroom     2nd Mar 2012 Member 0 Permalink
    Today, a new problem appeared when I was playing TPT: I can't save properly a creation.
    When I want to update a creation, I save normally, everything is right but if I look at the save, it is still at the previous update.
    I have to save unpublishing the creation and to re-save publishing it for the update to work.

    This is quite annoying so please help me or tell me how to fix it.

    There's a caching proxy that sits between the powder toy and the Main server, although the changes get uploaded, if you close the save and open again, you may get a version from 10 minutes ago max. All you have to do is wait a bit.

    Yes, this has become a serious problem for me too. Its becoming quite the nuisance.

    It shouldn't really be an issue, it only happens if you save, close and open again, which I don't think many people do.

    For me this is not a problem, but when did you add this proxy, or have it been there forever?

    Proxy has been there since early February.

    That is good for when working on an unpublished save, but when published you will lose all comments votes and ect.
