| Summary | 0002636: FRED breaks mission saving when adding new ships | ||||
| Description | When I add a new ship to a mission in FRED and then save the mission, it adds ;;FSO 3.6.10;; before the +Use Table Score field for the new ship. Unfortunately, when I try to save the mission again after I make some changes, FRED crashes because of the "comment" it adds when the mission is saved the first time. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. Open up FRED2_Open 3.6.14 RC5 2. place some ships 3. save the mission 4. make some more changes 5. try to save the mission again 6. FRED crashes. | ||||

Forgot to mention that I had the "Save Format" set to FS2_Open (Compatibility) |
|
|
I believe karajorma knows this section of the code best, to triage |
|
|
Nope, Compatibility mode is the prison where some very deranged code lives. Goober's the resident prison warden. I merely created it so that it wouldn't keep sabotaging everyone else's attempts to update FRED. |
|
|
I'll take a look. However, Compatibility mode is only required for very specific circumstances, namely allowing a mission to be played on multiple versions of FSO. This is almost never needed unless you're making something for FSPort. You should normally use regular FSO mode. |
|
|
I renamed Compatibility Mode to something less likely to be chosen. Any sort of actual fix can only come with a rewrite of the version-specific commenting system, which is likely to happen around the time wxFRED is released. "Fixed" in r9363. |
