Corrupted saves again!

<< < (2/3) > >>

Testlund:
Ok, it's a little difficult for me to understand all what you're saying here. I have a sim here that is not corrupted. Maybe this one can be loaded into your new version too. I really hope it will, because this is really a fascinating sim. Imagine that I had several hundred veggies on screen, then I increased the costs, and I put costs into DNA upkeep and body upkeep. I have day/night cycles set to 10000. Most of my veggies turned to corpses suddenly, but about 50 or so veggies managed to stay alive. Then they slowly started to multiply and became a couple of hundreds. Very stable. They even seem to stand 10000 cycles of night, then they start gaining energy again when the sun goes up. I will upload the sim here. Maybe you guys want to check it out. This one loads in 2.42.3c. It hangs for a few seconds first before loading. Hmm.... I played around with loading default settings and then load a saved sim.... Don't know how to explain it. Tried with loading the settings I use for this sim also, and I got some strange happenings. A few times the sim loaded, then a couple of seconds later a new sim started from the beginning! But I THINK this save should work now. Give it a try!  

I found out I have to FIRST start a new sim with the settings file I'm using, THEN I can load this saved sim, so here is my settings file I'm using.

My sim is at 6 million now, but I've lost several hundreds of thousands cycles to bad saves.
found out that the option - save robots dna - does that every time
As long as I'm running the sim and don't save robots dna its ok
if I save a robots dna, all saved sims afther that are currupted.
Hope this info is of any use....

PurpleYouko:
How about using the "Snapshot" function?

Does that corrupt subsequent saves also?
If not then you can take the DNA directly out of any bot currently alive in your sim after taking a "snapshot" of the whole lot of them.

Welwordion:
Just an idea but maybe when you save over the bot you started with the mutations do not fit the bots anymore when you restart the sim?

Are you not using 2.42.4? This problem has been fixed in this version. It works fine for me to save and load sims now, though I haven't tried to save a bot. I copy the DNA and create a new textfile instead.
