[workaround found] [Bug] mission editor doesnt work. Stays on this screen

[Three_Pryme]

Unresponsive UI, Cant scroll, most UI buttons dont work, I cant exit out of the editor. I cant place ships. Cant edit anything. Im forced to shut down my computer. Any workaround i can perform?

At a guess: you loaded a corrupt map file. The best thing you can do to help the issue get resolved is post your log file.

I uninstalled the game and reinstalled it, it seemed to have worked.

EDIT: nope i loaded it a second time, did not work.

Also. I cant find my crash logs

[Three_Pryme]

Ok i did find something.

If i dont name the map when I hit create new map. It works fine. But when i name it something, it does the bug.

I had a similar problem, can you tell me what exactly you name the maps?

[Three_Pryme]

I didnt name it anything. It worked when it was just "My Map".

Doesnt work with any other name

[Prof]

Ok then. I noted that using colons (:) in the map name caused the same problem.

[knucracker]

Map names are used for the name of files.  So anything that might be an illegal character in a file name could cause a problem.  I'll look into making colons, slashes, and backslashes illegal in map names.

[Three_Pryme]

Hmm. That might be the cause.
