Hi,

/ignore)

First of all thanks for a fun gamemode, I've been playing it a lot recently, but now I've encountered a problem which really shuts down the fun of the mode, as it more or less forces me to start all over. Here's the deal:

After about playing around with my friends for a few days we've reached the point where we are able to use the tool-gun and build a pretty beautiful base. We weld and no-collide our base together to secure it, we add lights and no-collide effects for the sake of the server and to use as doorways.

Now, after reloading the map everything is unwelded, re-collided and basicly if I attempt at re-welding it all the game will shut down (No error, just pure .exe terminate).
EDIT: or even after just waiting around for a little while, it might crash as well.
After searching the web I found that others through the comments had mentioned this issue before.

Here are the data I can provide:
Servertype = Listen server (Online though)
No other addons running.
map: ~ gms_rollinghills

The problem does NOT persist in sandbox.
The problem does NOT persist if a new game of Stranded is started (without loading saves)
The problem PERSISTS even when game is loaded in gms_tropicalislands (Different map)
Game files have been verified - Problem still persists

I think the problem might be found in how it saves and loads savegames. There seems to be a lot of missing information in the loads, compared to what was saved.


Additional bugs:
* If plants are removed and not consumed their effect stays. (Binding(parent) the effect to the fruit instead of making co-spawn might solve this issue) This also happens if eaten after a load.
* If a melon or banana is eaten and it is part of the loaded game, you might get stuck in the EATING bar. (No idea what is causing this, but I fear it might be very related to the above as the plants stay but the fruit disappear)
* Tribes aren't saved, or rather; loaded

Again, they all seem to be related to the Load function.


Here you go - That's is all I can do. Good luck with the gamemode!
