I use PC Version: I just hit 1160 some odd pieces, and have obtained a (THIS PART IS SOLVED -strange red glow on many surfaces. I also had the hard kill zone below my map get set to being visible even though its setting was not set to "show".) I am also experiencing periodic instances where despawned items seem to be getting deleted even though I am not deleting them. I have some complex scripting and lots of pieces, but I am almost certain that nothing I'm doing with the scripting is keeping them from reappearing. Even the "Respawn all objects" does not bring back pieces in cases like this. For instance, I have a group of Send Teleporters overlaying each other and they spawn in for a moment depending on which switch is pressed. Often times after working on another part of the map, I come back to find that that system of Teleporters no longer works properly. This seems to only happen with despawned pieces, BTW. Thanks for any help. I know I saw a thread about the red glow, but I couldn't find it UPdate: I'm wondering if it has something to do with a crash of PC Forge and then I do not choose "recover", because I always save a lot. Thefore, the non-recovery version should be up to date. But I wonder if there's not something strange going on when this option is offered and you ignore it?
Thanks. I actually realized that the death zones seemed to be the culprit! I wonder how that got turned on? Might have been when doing Reset settings... I'm wondering if the disappearing pieces is that they are somehow getting selected when I don't realize it, and being deleted when I press the key. ???
UPDATE: I think this may be caused by grouping items that despawn with items that don't (or just having despawning items grouped with anything, perhaps?) can anyone verify this is a known issue, or have any other thoughts? I am going to repair the broken components AGAIN, and then be very caireful not to group them and then leave them. (will only group temporarily if I need to move the items) I'll report back if it happens again even with that new rule in place. Thanks again,
UPDATE: The dissappearing despawned pieces has not occurred (yet) since being very careful not to keep them grouped when saving and exiting... That MIGHT be the cause.. FYI
