Addictive Load disaster
Just in case someone make the same mistake as me, here is how three levels ( took me over a week ) that I made, deleted, gone from the file forever. I was so upset I almost broke my keyboard.

So I made a file called ' R Jungle ' in level editor. Inside, I named the campaign, etc etc. Made four levels, saved the file. At this point all is good.

Today I decided, four levels might be too many for one custom campaign. I cannot find a way just to move one level ( or copy ) to a different campaign file. But I remember with Additive Load, I can load the levels into a different campaign file.

So I open file ' MissionImpossibro ' ( a campaign file I made with just one level inside ). I go to file , click on ' R Jungle ', then click ' Additive Load.

The four levels loaded into ' MissionImpossibro ' campaign file successfully, so far so good. But I only wanted to move one level, so I deleted three levels in MissionImpossibro, assuming these all four levels are still in ' R Jungle ' file. Then I click ' Save ' . In my mind, I deleted the levels in MissionImpossible , and not ' R Jungle ' .

I go to File, select ' R Jungle ' Click Load. To my horror, three levels are deleted, nowhere to be seen. I go to ' MissionImpossibro ', and the levels are not there too.

So, additive load function do not duplicate your levels from one campaign file to another campaign, but more like moved them over?

I am still in shock and very upset about it cause it took me long time to make those four levels. Perhaps I am stupid in misunderstanding how to use this properly , just hope noone else repeat my mistake.

That's really strange because I use additive load to set up templates for my levels. It should be a copy and paste function. Something terrible must have happened in a update. Be sure to back up your saves next time.

You know, I cannot stop thinking about it, perhaps it is my fault that I thought it copy the levels from R Jungle to MissionImpossibro, and in fact it is the other direction? So I ended up editing R jungle while thinking it is MissionImpossibro? I dunno, I have to test it later, but yeah I am stupid not to make backup copy of my files.

I think you may have overidden your old file of R Jungle. When you use "Additive Load" it puts that file name up by default rather than the file currently being worked on.

Yes I been testing and I think that is what happened. I still very confuse which way the addictive load work etc etc. So now,am not deleting any level unless I am sure I have a back up file somewhere first haha .
