Waypoints not saving? Post here
Waypoints should be persistent. If they aren't saving something is going wrong, and would like log files to help me track down the issue. If you're having problems with waypoints saving in single player or multiplayer post here please.

They do not appear to be saving in single player for me.

Can you please do the following for me:

Can you take the files from:
%appdata%\SpaceEngineers\Storage\363037395.sbm_WaypointsMod

And post them to pastebin.com (should be one .log files and a .txt file with a very long name). And then paste the links here? That would help me track the problem down.

reffnerc, those are indeed the files I need. But can you do me a favour. Run the game, add a few waypoints. And then upload the text of those two files. And after you do that, run the game again and then show me the files again. That way I have an idea of what is occuring.

I have that issue sometimes, too, though I'ld say it saves over 90% of the waypoints. Couldn't it be an issue of the savegame in my case? Normally all my wps appear, only once in a while ONE is missing.
I'm trying to make up a "bus stop" system - cargos showing up at wps waiting to be loaded and than go on - which worked before the last patch. Now Autopilot has issues (in my game) and the whole thing crashes badly when a programmed wp is missing. ("Crashes" means cargos spinning around like crazy and remote control can't be stopped - reload of the game is the only remedy I found so far).

ether i found a bug, or the owner of the server im playing on managed to 100% disable all waypoints from being seen. i tryed /wp toggle and still cant see them. when i asked owner, he said he didnt do anything with the mod. search solsystem, i have no idea if anyone else is having the problem or its just me. i tryed relogging and nothing fixed =/. tryed adding a new one cant see that also. but /wp list does show that all the waypoints are there.

There was about an hour where the publish I did on a fix didn't publish properly, and it was missing an SBC file, making the waypoints not display. This should be fixed though.

ok, sounds good ill tell the owner n see if he restarts the server and hopefully the server will update the file.
Marco Schepper 5 Jan, 2015 @ 3:29pm 
Good to know, my whole "system" crashed because of the missing wp. I was building up cargo routes, loaded the savegame and every cargo using autopilot was dancing around because they couldn't find their waypoint :D
tyrsis  [developer] 5 Jan, 2015 @ 4:37pm 
Sorry about that, I fixed it as soon as I found out about it.
Marco Schepper 5 Jan, 2015 @ 5:45pm 
I have to add that I use your mod quite a lot. Sometimes ONE wp was missing, probably the last I tried to save. Just today EVERYTHING was deleted on startup
Marco Schepper 5 Jan, 2015 @ 5:54pm 
It's ok, the Autopilot mod I was relying on doesn't work either. Looks like it's better to reinvent the wheel than to rely on wheel builders.

Lost all my waypoints when I loaded up today. Im so far from home to :(

So not really a Saving issue but this is the closest thing to a bug report forum
So /waypoint add "Test" will work
however /waypoint groupadd "Test" TestGroup" gives me an error
You Do Not Have a Waypoint with the name 'Test' ?

considering that testing with double single and no quotes yielded the same result i have no idea whats going wrong and why the mod cant find the existing waypoint
