OK, I've tried all the saved games, and at some point I've started getting that "Error decompressing data" message from all slots.
Once again my game is lost...
Zenerka:
IAX, blondandy, the problem you hit is solved. It was a bug in the code about saving alien cargo and item cargo - when i wrote the code i had used wrong loop counters.
smalul, bugs not related to saving should be reported on sourceforge tracker if they are not mentioned there yet as well as reported here - that's because if the bug will be release-stopper, we will try to fix it ASAP, while if the bug won't block release, we can postpone it for next days.
About the savegame bug with message subsystem, we will look into this, thanks for the report.
blondandy:
i've got a new one. win xp sp2. did the first mission, waited til the dropship was home. saved...

OK, thanks. I've sent a few bugs to the tracker already.

OK, more on this bug - first of all, it now seems 2 of the 8 save files are working, so not all is lost. Second, it seems like there are 2 stages to this bug:
1. The first part is the "Error loading game. Error in loading a subsystem - see console for more information", which appears only when I try to load a broken save file. Good save files are working fine.
Here is a picture of the bug:
2. The second part is the "Error loading game. Error decompressing data". This part happens after you try to loading broken save files a few times in stage one ("Error in loading a subsystem"), and then you start getting this "decompressing data" error. In this stage, you can't load ANY of the save files, including the working ones, and all gives the same "decompressing data" error message.
Here is a picture of this stage:
I hope this would help you locate and fix this bug.
By the way, do you need my saved files for analysis?
Zenerka:
Thanks to your reports as well as reports from people joining our ircchannel, i found and fixed another bug in saving. It occurs in case you have more than one base and/or more than one ship with team assignment.
The workaround for this is to use only one ship with team assigned to it.
