9.1.304 Map editor save issue

Post by evildari »

9.1.304 insider build Map editor
the save function does not work - that means NO save (both .mapx and .oof) is created by pressing that disk button.

Only the auto-save on exit to the backup folder works (at least with both files)!

also checked the file operation with the OS- resource manager - only the autobackup files were written
using adminstrator rights also did not work
..even compared the .hapx file to see if there was maybe a deleted action - same as in .250
and there my map can be saved without issues.

I am running into a save error with the map editor. I "can" save road and rail data and see the changes in-game, but, I cannot see my facility changes that I put in. Like Power Fusion Reactors for example, or land naval air production factories. Not even consumer goods or industrial military goods factories. The changes that I make to the map will not go through. If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it. I'm using the map editor through the content editor.

the latest version saves map changes in the maps subfolder of the scenario folder (not as it used to be to the root of the games maps folder)
so your sandbox scenario may access the old map in the original map folder and not the scenarios subfolder - maybe check the date&time stamp of the .mapx files in those folders and copy them where your scenario can read it.
