Restore /editor protection?

Post by Hurkyl »

In my current game, I just accidentally did an "/editor" command (I was trying to grab a "/evolution" from history).

Fortunately, the console protects you from this mistake and asks you to "/editor" again to confirm, since I had gone a long time without saving and really did not want to revert my progress.

However, now my save lacks this protection. I don't want to lose progress if this happens again.

How do I restore this protection?

I think there is a timeout of 2 minutes after which the warning should be armed again.

And it has to be 2 in-game minutes. Thus my attempts fail when I reload the save to experiment with getting it to come back.

Just checked that waiting 2 minutes with the game running does work. Thank you very much!
