Reload code

Answered

I seem to have a serious problem, I'm using IntelliJ to do lua scripting in a game engine.  Every so often intelliJ reloads code from hours passed and I end up losing hours of work.  This has happened twice today. I never get the box appearing asking me to reload from memory or whatever.  i really love this IDE but i can't live on pins and needles worring about old code replacing new code without even a clue to whats happening. 

Can I some how completely turn off External file changes monitoring ?

 

Thanks.

Where is your project located physically? Is it VCS-controlled? Is the directory shared?

Is the issue reproducible with all of your currently downloaded plugins disabled and IDE restarted? Settings | Plugins | ⚙ | Disable all downloaded plugins

You could try disabling the setting below, but I need more details in order to be able to provide better advice.

It's all done in a local hard-drive directory, not a shared project so I'm the only one making the changes.  It seems I may have caught what was happening. I have the compiler setup through command line then accessed via intellij.  I turned off 'save on error' within the game engine's settings and so far the event hasn't happened again ( 2 days strong now ) .

Thank you for your time/help.
