My game's save interval is 10 minutes which I've configured in the mod. However the mod alerts don't synchronize with the game's save. Thus the game autosaves and then half a minute later, the mod will alert me that there's 1 minute left before autosave.

If the mod can't find out by itself when the game has just finished autosaving, there needs to be a button to inform the mod so it can rearrange its timer accordingly.

I might have spotted the problem. I'm using Factory Planner which has the option to pause the game while the factory view is open. That stops the game but doesn't stop the autosave timer (and the game will save at the 10 minute mark, even though the base game is "paused"). I've turned off the pause feature.

In any case, it would be nice to have a button to press that can tell the mod "Start your clock from this point onwards."

Thanks for the report! I'm sorry I didn't see it until now.

I'm planning to update the mode for 2.0 at some point. I'm hoping I can have it detect when the game will actually be autosaving and eliminate the need for configuration, but when i first wrote this that just wasn't possible. Maybe that has changed!
