Mission Editor Bugs

[Gambit21]

1. I have a previously working mission that will no longer open in the editor even though the msbin files were deleted first thing.

I'm working on 2 missions at the moment, one opened fine after deleting the msbin files (see below) the other says "error reading mission file"

 

2. Different mission - the one that opens.  I have a strange vehicle group showing up and crashing into my static aircraft on the airfield at the beginning of the mission.

No vehicle group was placed here, no routes are even visible in the editor. Fire up the mission, and there they are.

 

Edit - the problem is due to a vehicle convoy, and the following vehicles breaking formation and going off in

their own direction - despite still being properly target linked to the lead vehicle.

This was a working formation pasted in. 

 

After testing - something appears to be broken with formations/target links.

Again this was a perfectly working 3 vehicle convoy that was simply pasted in a new location.

Deleting the output links of the 2 following vehicles and re-target linking to the lead vehicle did not solve the issue.

Deleting the 2 following vehicles, re-pasting..new way-points did not solve this.

 

I can provide both missions if you PM an email link.

Confirmed - something broke with vehicle convoys, formations.

I checked the original convoys that were pasted onto the new airbase, they too are now breaking apart with the vehicles scattering.

 

Both issues from above persist.

To clarify, these are off road formations.

With the new update the airfield are shivering in the mission builder.

Issue 1 from above clarified - text editor fix.

Issue 2 persists.

[Gambit21]

Text editor fix - changing "CheckEntities" to "CheckPlanes" did not work.

Mission still fails to open after the update.

[Gambit21]

Mission editor also crashes more now.

Doesn't like to switch from one mission to another.

 

If I'm editing something, then save and try to open a different mission - crash.

Convoy issue solved.

There was a change with the update that 'broke' them with my old MCU layout, changing a different workflow has the convoys behaving again.
