Terrain Editor save issue

From hub: https://hub.jmonkeyengine.org/t/sdk-3-8-error-empty-scene/48424

This is when I close Scene Composer after saving it by clicking on “Save All” Icon.

Terrain Editing and other issues. Am I doing something wrong ???

SDK is not Saving when you saving click ‘Save’ or ‘Save All’. But if you don’t click save to ‘Ctrl+S’ to save etc and close scene composer window then a warning window will appear to save it. Now when I save it with this warning windows save button. Now its working !!

I experienced this issue years ago, but when I reported it on the forums I don't think I described how to reproduce it properly or it may have been a down time where no one was actively working on the SDK with time to look into my issue, and then I forgot about the issue when I made my own custom terrain editor app.

But I definitely remember that my Terrains wouldn't always saveproperly from a single ctrl-s in the SDK's terrain editor

So to ensure it always saved the textures and terrain mesh properly, I'd first do ctrl-shift-s, and then (before closing the scene) I'd make another tiny change to trigger the pop-up prompt asking me to save , and if I didn't save with the pop up dialogue either my sculpting or images wouldn't save (one or the other, i can't exactly remember since its been so long)

So there's definitely a bug with saving terrains in the SDK that I've experienced as well.

It might be related to the SDK in general. I seem to remember using both, just to be sure :)

The issue was that the terrain editor created its own savecookie to update "alpha maps", which meant the "assetnode" was never saved. presumably "save all" worked because it would save everything that was modified.
I'll have a PR up in a bit.
