vJASS Preprocessor Bug

[emjlr3]

Is there some bug with NewGen where maps saved with certain sized names will not run the pre-compiler?

for instance, the same map, nothing changed other then the file name:

• emjlr3 - 1000 Needles, Saves
• emjlr3 - THN Spell Contest #20 - 1000 Needles, Doesn't Save

rather, the map saves, but the script is not preprocessed, and is therefore unplayable

just me?

Happens to me to, and if you insert a big name in the map description you can't open ingame, don't know why

I thought it was something like 32 that file names work up to?

Yes, this is a bug with JASSHelper.

However, there is also the bug with Warcraft III not playing maps with very long names, which can be fixed by moving the map to a temporary folder, a sort of hackish method, which is automated by W.U.B.S.

ok I was going crazy trying to figure out wtf the problem was

now I know...does anyone know the exact file string length which breaks the limit?

is it 32? would make sense because my second would be above that

For some reason 32 is what pops up in my mind.
Just test is using 32 then add one more character each time until it breaks.
