# Missing Undo Functionality

## Feedback Content

"An ‘undo’ function even in its most simple form would help and provide a GUI way to recover from errors resulting from DB inputs or transformations… Since a proper undo function could be complicated to implement even a simple ‘quick save’ function that creates a save point and allows for a recovery later on like in various games would already be great (or maybe even the better solution)!”
