Summary0002206: Engine sometimes fails to create data\players\* directories
DescriptionJust as a reminder for further investigation, the engine sometimes fails to properly create the data\players\ folder structure, leading to it erroneously claiming that there is no space available for pilot files.

Is this Inferno build only? Basically can't create data\players\inferno because data\players hasn't been created? Or is it doing it with standard builds now as well?

I am not aware of standard builds doing this, but I think it still is a problem with Inferno.

So then it should disappear when Inferno becomes standard.

I'm positive that this is simply a permissions problem. On the newer operating systems, the application simply doesn't have the permissions to create a new directory.

I'm closing this because the new pilot code will eventually make this issue obsolete.

This is not a permission issue and goes back to at least XP. It's a failure to create the inferno driectory since the parent directory doesn't exist. So it's more of a cfile issue.

Still it will disappear once the inferno sub directory is no longer needed.
