Hello, does anyone know if there is a way to detect when the player is about the quit or exit the game? There doesn't seem to be any Events for this, but perhaps someone has a creative idea on how to detect it? Perhaps detecting the messagebox that asks if you want to save before quitting?

Considering someone can type "qqq" in console and immediatly quit, bypassing all menus and warnings, I would say there is no reliable way. For that matter, they could kill the process with task manager or unplug their computer. You maybe able to forge a menu facade with flash (see SkyUI), but it would be a lot of work and not bullet proof. I dont know what you are trying to do, but your time would probably be better spent designing a solution around detecting when a game is loaded and putting in some initialization/recovery code.

May I ask what this is for? If there even was a way (Which I don't believe there is) it probably wouldn't fire until the player clicked exit, or 'yes', and then it's too late to do anything anyway.

As said above, no not really.

You can make some guesses, but not reliably enough for anything to work 100% I would imagine.

They are as good as it gets (and happen way more often than just exiting the game)

Thanks for the input guys. I'm trying to get the game to autosave on exit (yes, I know the game prompts you to save before exiting, but I'll be disabling that). I think what I will do is just detect when the player is in menumode and RequestAutosave() every so often.
