I don't know what happened, but I think I messed up something whilest it was saving.
But my Object Data is all messed up.
Its replaced all my Object Editor information with TRIGSTR_###.
# being a number.

Is there any fix for this? Otherwise I kinda have to retype up every ability and unit in the game. Quite lame.
Everything works fine, just my tooltips are screwed.
Any suggestions or ideas on how to fix this?
Really depressing lol.

My Triggers are fine, just Object Data.
Here's a Screenshot:

I have to say that I never have seen something like that happening.

I know that WE crashing while saving tends to corrupt the file being saved and there really is no way to fix that - that's why you should always have multiple copies of your maps.

Maybe pressing CTRL + D twice in the Object Editor does anything but I highly doubt that.
In that case, the map is pretty much corrupted (I'm amazed you can still open it in WE).

Sorry.

Eh, I am just going to save another copy. And rechange all the values.
It's basically just the Tooltips and names that did not save.
So i just need to do a hellofalot of typing and redo all my names and tooltips.
Eh, suppose its worth it :/

[in future im going to backup everything lol]

I saw this before once, map file is damaged. I dont know if you can save anything from it.
Happened to me when the power supply ran out while saving a map.

Didn't hit me too hard, i'm quite lucky.
Only lost alil Object Data, it was near the end of the saving.
I just saved the map as something else, and now I'm recreating the missing data.

So, not all hope is lost.
Thanks for the support though.

If you tested your map with the Test Map action within the WE itself prior to saving, you should be able to recover the tested version of the map from the Test folder.

It happened to me a lot when JASS compiling errors showed up and the WE was lagging.

Oh, you know thats a really good point.
But i have re-tested the map now.
Does it over-write? sigh.

Yes, unfortunately it does. If only I had seen this earlier. The only solution now is to rewrite everything.

Yeah, thanks anyway. Will remember that for next time.

And well I'm already 85% completed retyping lol.

    Actually I was just playing with having some kind of mention of the food forum and recipes on the main page to test and see if it would engage some of those people to post something. It is just weird to get so much traffic and no engagement
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
