Unity 3D AutoSave (updated March 2017)

Auto Save Scene Editor Script

Ever made lots of edits to your scene, then started play mode, only to have Unity hang because of some bad code you added in a script losing your unsaved scene edits?  Well here is a simple solution, add the script below to your project and now your scene will first save whenever you hit the play button.

Or, copy and paste the code to a file called “autosave.cs” in your project.

/// <summary>
/// AutoSave.cs, editor helper script. Saves the scene ans modified assets when you hit Play in the Unity Editor, so if Unity should 
/// crash, or similar, you don't lose any scene or assets you haddn't saved before hitting Play.
