Should I just AutoSave when I Checkpoint?

I have received an issue with my CS that could have been alleviated had I used AutoSaves, but instead, I've only been using checkpoints. I have realized that checkpoints will only be used if the player dies. I need periods in time that the player can revert to if they are stuck in a situation where they cannot die (Glitched through walls, getting stuck in geometry, etc.)

tl;dr What's the best strategy when throwing in AutoSaves?

OnEnter() is the most common spot

I rate it 3 memes.
