Auto Screenshot
Godot 4.3+
Automatically take in-development screenshots of the full editor, the 2D or 3D viewport, even in-game testing at regular intervals. Uses history to skip some screenshots where presumably no visual work elapsed.
Icon modified from Delapouite's Photo Camera Icon and Backward Time Icon

I recommend changing the target folder outside of the project's "user://" directory. The default setting intends to work on any device, not a suitable location for managing content.
File Format String
Takes several options. Classic datetime with year, month, day, hour,
minute, and second, and options for the project name, the open scene of
which the screenshot captures, and the mode of the capture i.e. the 2d
viewport (canvas), 3d viewport, full-editor, or in-game.
Default value: {year}-{month}-{day}_{hour}.{minute}.{second}_{project}_{scene}_{mode}.png
Always saves in png format.
