Title: Saved games not loading - ufoai-2.4-dev-32055-Debug
Post by: ManicMiner on December 01, 2010, 09:29:03 pm
Hi,

Prior to updating via Muton's script an hour ago my saved games were loading. Now when I select a saved game, the indications in the console are that the game has loaded however it just drops back to the load/save menu.

Is anyone else getting this?

Sure you are, the error message is "Invalid employeeIDX". ;)

It seems you have actually downgraded your UFO:AI copy!
We don't support forward-compatibility with savegames.

The employee index property was removed at 2010-10-28 (with d1f05a81d62b0f18c86858c81c27eeedef9a8c41 (http://ufoai.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=ufoai/ufoai;a=commit;h=d1f05a81d62b0f18c86858c81c27eeedef9a8c41), ) while 32055 (http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/ufoai/changeset/32055) is an SVN revision from 2010-08-29. (We don't use SVN anymore, moved to Git.)

Be more cautious next time.

Geever, you are a genius and I am a prat.

I forgot I switched over to my local profile instead of my roaming profile before going away on business...
And the desktop icon for the Muton build script on the local profile, still points to the OLD utility.

Please delete this thread, I cannot take the shame.
