noob question :P How do I save a large amount of code?

After you've made a big level, how do you save a large amount of code? I have a Google chrome book & have been saving using Pages. But recently, the large amount of code wouldn't allow me to save my work. It'd copy & paste but my computer wouldn't save it or it'd say an error has occurred :/ so I still have the code for the TERMINAL still copied but I haven't saved the final version yet. Does anyone have some helpful suggestions?? Hopefully, I won't be copying anything in the meantime

 

yeah, that's what I'm using too my last save for TERMINAL was at 147 pages but I've added a bit more after that. I've tried pasting in an email to myself but that froze the window. Is there any other places I can try to paste code?

 

The easiest way is to use pastebin.com or notepad for larger codes

 

Use the app Notes or pastebin.com

 

I signed up for pastebin & tried but it's too big a file. I looked into notepad for chrome but my computer doesn't wanna download apps atm. :/ oh technology.. so frustrating sometimes. I'm probably gonna have to reboot it but then I'll loose my last save. thanks for the suggestions though

 

thanks for the suggestion

 

If u have Microsoft Word or something similar, save it in their. Thats where i save all of my tracks and so far ive had no troubles with it

 

thanks I'll look into it. I still haven't copied anything yet but I'll have to if I wanna make more tracks

 

Yeah, for certain

 

Notepad is the best thing to keep it in tbh as the UI won't eat into your ram either and then you upload the notepad onto a cloud based storage or pastebin for emergency.

 

Well, notepad is what you're looking for, but you're on a chromebook, so I'd suggest you use something from the chrome web store, such as quick note and scribble, they're very nice, but I only tried them for a few seconds and I have no idea about if they crash when inserting huge lines or not, as I have not tried it!
That's why I say buy Windows laptops! There are ones as cheap as chromebooks, but then no one knows about them, that's the problem!

 

The new editors 'Save as file' might help. I PM'd you.

 

Wait, so save as file is like a replacement for saving wips online or what?

 

For the time being.

 

Has it updated yet/when will it be updated?

 

um you're an official author so you get to access the beta which has all of this already lol

 

Not ALL of it, but sorta yeah

 

yeah
so what's ur opinion on what you've seen of the new editor now!?
