Summary0002523: FRED not handling jump nodes correctly
DescriptionPlease note that FRED won't even save data about created jump nodes. You have to create them in Notepad and then not touch them.

Also interesting is that pre-Jumpnode Refactor, when you ctrl-clicked to create a jumpnode, the whole wireframe would appear. Now, you only get a dot. A dot that means nothing as FRED never saves any data about it.
Additional InformationI tested on build 8310. It's still broken.
TagsNo tags attached.

This seems to have been fixed already. Can you check a recent build and confirm?

 I'm still getting this with build 7938, but it appears that it only does it with jumpnodes (and I think that it was that way before and I didn't notice). If I select a jumpnode in the waypoints editor, anything I try to do from that point on will generate the problem. Message comes up "This jump node name is already being used by another jump node. Press OK to restore old name." Pressing either OK or Cancel will bring you back to the editor with the same result to follow. Also, changing the name of the jumpnode in question will bring up the same sequence.

Well, I tried exactly that and it worked.

Can you tell me exactly the steps you followed, from the point you opened FRED?

Also, tell me what build you're running, and whether it's inferno, debug, etc.

 This happens on all builds post commit r7855 & 7856. (At least inferno builds, both retail and debug. It's related to bug 2528. I never checked standard.

The issue is not in RC .14

I already stated which build I was using, though it was non-debug. I simply opened an existing mission that had a jumpnode, selected it either by right-click or through the waypoints editor.

FRED still freaks out when working with jumpnodes. Creating a jumpnode still causes it to create a blank dot.

What's new: Trying to rename that dot showed that it already had a crazy (larger than 32 character) name. It didn't lead to an inescapable loop, FRED just crashed when I tried to rename it.

FRED Log added to files.

I confirm that FRED still hates creating or modifying jumpnodes.

I posted in the thread, but I'll put it here now that this is back open.

I tested on build 8310. It's still broken.

Changed the "Target Version" to 3.7 since this a Trunk/Antipodes only issue, not a Release Branch issue that will affect 3.6.14
