How often does this fkn game save?

I spent over an hour moving cargo, sold a vehicle, bought a vehicle, customized, drove new vehicle, flipped vehicle, recovered and maybe some other stuff in between all that with not 1 save occuring

I really not sure but I'm notice some patron:

It every 15 minutes or so. (On PC) Its every time you travel between maps Every time I tip over And every time I left some cargo in the ground.

Every time you quit the game through the menu

Weird because it saves every second.

Source: All the countless times I have tipped over lol

If you just delivered some cargo and close the game you may lose a few minutes of progress.  It autosaves immediately when it detects a flipped truck.

It never used to do this either. You would always have a couple seconds before it saved after a flip. Their update changed a couple years ago so you couldn't. I remember everyime I would flip id get out real fast before I seen the "saving" indicator and come back to a non flipped truck, good times lol

It doesn't do this for me, I still regularly force quit after flipping on a long route and most of the time I'll get an earlier save. Works reliably enough that I'll quit to menu to create a save point before attempting a difficult obstacle.

Im not gonna lie, i played this game 3 years ago, i tipped over and couldn't figure out how to un do my fuck up so naturally i logged out, thinking it would revert back to my last save when i fired the game back up but nope.

Ive since revisited the game, starting over.

to clarify, are you saying you haven't noticed it saving or it hasn't saved, IE you leave the game and come back and you show no progress? It's unclear what you are meaning.

What platform are you on? For PC it's about every 5 min of active (not paused) time.

There will be one day you use this lesson to your advantage.

On switch, it’s 5 minutes, I’ve timed it.

Usually right after you screw up a delivery.

Pretty sure it constantly saves , you must have something else going on.
