    Hello, this times im working on one huge tpt project. And recently I spotted a terrible bug, while i pressing "save" buttion, TPT crushes, and it didnt save all changes in my work, which i was doing! 

    What is the most intersting, this error apears from time to time. That means, that TPT crushes not every time, when i press save, but sometimes it do :(

    Can you help me solve this problem?

    Win 7 x64, CPU - Pheneom II x6 1055T, 4gb RAM, video - GTX 470.

    I ve spotted this error, near 1-2 weeks ago. Earlier I have never spot this error before.

     

    Error:

    This has been known since the version came out, and has been fixed since then as well, but there has not been a new release yet.

    I haven't seen it either, but I don't use it, so that is probably why.

    It always would crash for me (if compiled in debug mode) a while ago when saving anything, but @jacksonmj fixed that crash. That may be what is causing this one, but I have no idea. tpt++ just tends to crash more, I sometimes get random crashes in debug mode, especially when opening saves and closing the game. I always compile like that hoping to find a cause, but I never do.

    Currently im saving my work with changing it name all time, (and deleting old saves of it with time), and it works good now. But always i'm terribly afraid, when i'm pressing "Save" button XD

     You could make stamps of them before saving.  That's what I always do.

    I notice it crashes like this when you turn your computer on after saving the window in hibernate. *notices flat line in icons* "Looks like it did crush!" *rimshot* :P

    ok, based off of what cracker64 said, when things go off the screen and you try to save, that's what causes the crash. Things like PHOT get invalid coordinates like this often, so certain things will make it crash more. Clearing the sim, and loading the save then saving it before things go off the screen should make sure there is no crash, until the next version is out.

    By off the screen, I think that means even out of the range off the 4 spaces of particle deletion too, so don't worry about it, clearing the sim before saving will always work, and you may not even need to do that.
