I know that maps sometimes makes unexplainable bugs, but this is by far the worst.
I was a unit, abilities for it and the triggers to go along with it. Hadn't saved for a long time. I click save, and it World Editor crashed. I almost started to cry.
Then I decided to saddle up, and do it all again. Now I knew what had to be done, so it didn't take long. I also enabled Autosave every 5 minutes, just in the unlikely event that it would crash again.
I did most of my work again, and got it saved. Now, however, I'm unable to save.
When I press Save, it shows the saving progress bar as it usually does. When it reaches Generating Map Script and the sub-title Variables, the progress bar glitches a couple of times, and then shows an error message:
AppName: worldedit.exe AppVer: 0.0.0.0 ModName: worldedit.exe
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 002af7be
I never had the Editor actually perma-crash on me before, but now, I've seen that as well.
Anyone know if this is one of those bugs that I'll just have to live with (recreating everything from the previous version up until now), or is it perhaps an overload of variables?
Just before the save, I added my 153rd variable, is there a limit?
Any help or hints would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: Now I've opened up the latest version of the map, and clicked save without any changes, and that works fine. The changes I've tested that apparently couldn't be saved, was this single custom script
EDIT v.2: I hate doing this. Okay, apparently BodyguardsPlayerGroup was too long a variable name (they should really warn people about this). I tried renaming it to 'Bodyguard', and changing the custom script respectively. And it acts like nothing was ever wrong...
Sorry about writing a thread about it before testing the problem through.
If some admin can delete it, that's fine. If you want to keep it for the sake of other people seaching for the same problem that's fine as well.
Once again, sorry for the use of server space
EDIT v3: Can I really keep editing this damn thing?
Okay, I found out, I have a problem still. It's a certain trigger than must be disabled for the map to save. When it's enabled, it crashes.
Help would still be appreciated
EDIT v 4.01: Thought I'd better started expanding the version numbers on these edits
Okay, it looks that Player Group - Add (Owner of (Casting unit)) to Bodyguard and Custom script: call DestroyGroup (udg_Bodyguard) was the problem. Deleted all 3 instances of each, enabled the trigger and saved the map. I'll just settle with displaying to all players for the sake of peace.
I would however, still like to know if anyone can see a problem in this?
