Was working on implementing a save/load code (CodeGen 1.0.1) into a map. The custom scripts (posted below) seem to corrupt the map when the map is saved in the world editor (JassHelper finds errors and the map is not playable in game). I am not very knowledgeable with custom scripts or jass, but would like to find the problem in the triggering. Posted below are TriggerHappy's triggers for the save/load code exactly as found on the map (for reference). One would figure that the save/load system would work if just copied and pasted into a different map, but even without changing any of the GUI below and pasting it into my map, it still corrupts the map. Again, i am illiterate with JASS and custom script. any suggestions on how to get this to work? Feel free to state whatever further information you need.

Does triggerhappy have any jass coding in his save/load in the original map? Since that may contain key variables resulting in this error.

If he does have them, copy it into your map and see if it works (You don't have to understand the Jass if it's similar to another save/load code all you do is copy it). They can be found at the top of your trigger editor page, where it has the name of your map.w3x

Thanks for pointing that out, i missed that code. Interestingly, if I make a new map with nothing in it and paste the code, it works. If I paste it into my map, it doesn't work. There must be something in my map interfering with the custom script. I have deleted all triggers and all variables in the map, but the problem still persists.
