A number of people keep running into the problem of levels saving weirdly. I think I know what the cause is.
In serveroptions, if you do 'autosavelevels = true', the server will be saving levels several minutes after they have been updated last. If you are not frequently using the Update Level command as you work, sometimes the level files will get saved automatically by the server, but not updated. If you leave the map or get disconnected, the tiles will look like they have been erased, but sometimes you can recover them by actually chatting 'update level' in the client.
I'm not sure that I've seen a case where using the Update Level command in the editor will accidentally erase tile work, but I'll keep my eyes peeled for that as well. But again, I suspect that server option can interfere with the tile editor.
