If each "iteration" takes a long time and you are afraid the program will end before it checks the next time at the end of an iteration you could track record the time of each iteration so your monitor routine knows how long a timestep takes and can estimate if another timestep is possible within the current amount of time you have available and if there is not enough time triggers the saving.

Yeah, this is my fallback idea. Thanks, and thanks also to Jose Roman
for pointing out the example.
