is my map chalked?

The last time I edited my map was a few days ago. Today when I tried editing, there were some unexplainable bugs occurring. 1) All units can walk through every unit & building, completely ignoring their collision. 2) I have a simple trigger on the intro of the map where after picking your hero, it'll just move your hero to a region I set it to. That for some reason does not work at all and I haven't touched it in ages. 3) Whenever I quit during my test, it always crashes. 4) None of the order I set for AI works anymore. They don't listen and when they do spawn, they all just stuck in place. 5) Moving around bugs out sometimes where I literally can't move and it feels like I'm stuck in place or something is blocking me (could be related to the units collision bugging out). Just an FYI, in the beginning of my map, I barely have anything running. My FPS & Ping is fine too when I was testing it. I do remember the last time before I saved, there was a weird UI issue happening. Basically in my object editor, it wouldn't show anything in the data field until my cursor was placed over it. I remember saving and then leaving and didn't come back to testing it until today. The good news is, I have an older version that is a few weeks old and I didn't lose crazy amounts of progress if I were to start on that one. Currently trying to figure out if there something that can be done or is the file corrupted. Has this happened to anyone else? I'd like to know how to prevent it if possible. Thanks ahead of time if someone can pass me some info on this.

Is it only like this in your map? Sounds like a Warcraft 3 problem in general.
Yeah could be. All I know is all these problems are nonexistent in my previous version and it's not like I did anything crazy on my most recent version.I'm not skilled enough to do any super amazing with jass or lua. All I did were minor adjustment on items, abilities, units, move regions, and optimize some triggers. I'm hesitating on whether or not I should even copy/paste import all the new stuff I did or just to it from start again

I doubt that your map just randomly "broke". I would restart your pc, try to patch (there's a pretty new update), and worst case reinstall the game.

Also, I've heard that imported assets can cause problems so try clearing your assets and see if that fixes anything.

Then I recommend saving your map as a folder to help avoid/remedy issues in the future, Save As -> click the drop down and choose folder.
