When B/side's server can't be reached

Keep cutting when the server is away — edits are kept on your computer, a project you've opened before opens from its copy, and everything is sent when it's back.

Sometimes B/side's server can't be reached: the company that hosts it is having a bad hour, or your own internet has dropped. The editor tells you with a banner across the top, saying since when:

> B/side's server can't be reached since 1:45 PM. Keep working: edits are kept on this computer and sent when > it's back. 2 edits waiting.

Keep cutting. Every edit applies straight away, as it always does, and waits on your computer. When the server is back the banner goes, a note says how many edits are being sent, and they go in order. If somebody else edited the same cut meanwhile, yours are moved through their changes the same way they are when two people cut at once.

Reloading is fine, and so is closing the window. The editor keeps a copy of the last project you opened on this computer and of its own files. Opened while the server is away, the project comes up from that copy and the banner says so; your waiting edits are still waiting. A project you have never opened on this computer can't be opened until the server is back.

What waits for the server: signing in for the first time on a computer, opening a new project, inviting people, new footage from A/Side, seeing other people's edits as they make them, and anything that exports or shares. Footage already playing keeps playing.

Don't clear your browser's data for B/side while edits are waiting: that is where they are kept.

Is it just me?

status.bside.video says whether B/side's server is answering, checked from somewhere other than B/side's own hosting, so it still works when that is what's down. It checks again every 30 seconds. If it says B/side is up and you still see the banner, the problem is between you and the internet.
