Re: Life is simply too short
I have been making several tracks for SO7 and the biggest issue with the course editor I have come across is stability. Some things I have come across are:
- modded courses come with no rails visible so I have had to re-export the course so as to bring them back into view,
- end chutes getting reset so the finish line sits on WP1 (that messes up the starting place for those courses that use them),
- when I finish working on the waypoints and then go on to move one of the entities, the last waypoint I had worked with moves instead... this is something that is easy to miss if you work on an entity that is in a different place from the last waypoint you had worked with. This could be why some courses have horses running through the rails.
Random crashes - For some reason, the gallops course crashes in-game as soon as you select it: a user asked me about it and I tried re-exporting it but it didn't stop it from crashing. The game also crashes when I try to call up a replay from a race result... its okay if I call up a replay from a horse's form.
An autosave facility, say every 1 month into the schedule would be nice. There must be nothing worse than running through an epic season and the game crashes.
