I usually save a wip build as "temp" so I could comfortably undo stuff, I also overwrite it with new builds when its done

    @PlaneFlightX same goes for my school files and then I mistakenly send the "Near Final.docx" instead of the "Final Submission (real this time).docx" XD

    I have an external saving system, in that all my files aside from the active ones (currently just 7 or so SWL-120 subprojects) are stored in other folders. In my SWL-120 project folder, different subprojects such as fuselage, wings, interior, landing gear, parts of landing gear, cockpit, FMC, etc are stored in their own folders. For every few hours spent on a file, or when I choose, I drag the file to its appropriate folder, and add a number to the end of the name. I'm currently up to version 82 of the landing gear, version 22 of the nose gear, version 37 of the cockpit controls (it's the cockpit, mounted in the flight model), version 45 for the non-modded wings, and so on. I have a total of 459 archived XML files, totaling 385 megabytes.

    That's just the SWL-120, which if you think about it is one plane.
