Since the author of this thread does not do so, I will dump the information here.
Lightning effects do not save properly/are not properly loaded. See attached map. Start it, wait for the lightnings to appear, save the game and load it.
The first three numbers displayed then are the ids of the old bolts/where the variables point to. Apparently, they still have the formerly ids but the lightnings are missing. The next three numbers are of fresh bolts. Since they also get the ids 1-3, that indicates that the allocator is reset/not used when the game was loaded.
Invalid lightnings easily crash the game when you use actions on them, so be careful.
If the problem for somebody does not occur, it might be os/settings-dependent.
