I have Actor. On CreateActor, I added Action Script Editor and wrote :
    x = -147;
    y = 90;

I then place my actor out of the scene view. On Game Mode, everything's ok : My actor has coordinates (-147,90) and we can see it on screen.
I get out of Game Mode, save the ged, reopens it then :shock: NO trace of CreateActor Event in Actor Control ! as if I NEVER wrote CreateActorEvent :?:

Any idea what is going on?

OOOooh ! Spirit ! GO AWAY !

In fact it is not systematic.
But I got the same problem just now, again :? When I get this, be sure that just after this causes a crash in Game Mode!
I'll redo all the CreateActor parameters and'll send it to you.

This is the file in which, on 4 actor, I put a CreateActor Event. As you'll see they are no more present, only for one:

But I can assure you that there were CreateEvents on them. Now they're all gone...

ingsan,
I experience this error too. I've never been able to reproduce it consistently, so I've never reported it. I thought that it was probably my own machine's problem! I've dealt with the problem by saving my work very frequently. Then, if I experience the sudden loss of my event, I close out of GE and reload the game. It is a pain, but it seems to work. However, it is tedious to have to rewrite the lost code. :cry:

I'm in the same boat. :cry:

All I do is save new versions with every move I make and retreat if things go wrong.

Can't reproduce it. Seems to happend after multiple runs... (sometimes)

I'm sure some clue will turn up soon. :)

In which actor?


There was a CreatActor Event on :
    MainCharacter
    Restaurant
    Resto_TEXT
but it disappeared. The only actors on which it hasn't dissapeared are :
    YES_NOWindow
    YES_TEXT

What's the action in each actor?

Just

x = -147;
y = 90;

???

MainCharacter = onCreateActor, Script : MainCharacter variables

Restaurant = onCreateActor, Script :
    x = something;
    y = something;


Same for Resto_TEXT.

But they are no more !
