This is amazing!

This is truely amazing, I have to agree with Juan. Not only do you not have to manually do it but this script allows you to automatically re-backup your files at the customized time. This will be really helpful for me, thanks

 

[game_guy]

Only one slight problem. :3 While its a nice script and a nice idea and very very helpful, you'll most likely get a Script is Hanging error for the fact that Graphics.update needs to be called and if it doesn't get called within 10 seconds, it'll hang and close. So just add a Graphics.update in your for loops and it should be ok. Again nice script, not trying to dis your script or anything. xD

Actually it doesn't need Graphics.update, because I'm using Thread. I've tested this script with a 40mb project, and there was no lag to initialize the game. :D
