    Anyone else have the problem with metal spots and CSG placed disappearing even after saving multiple times/versions?

    Do you remember to click on a different category (csg, metal spots, landing zones), before saving and exiting? Things don't appear to validate unless you change category, and when you do some things fail validation and disappear (for example metal spots that are too close together).

    I actually find that I can save a system just fine (so long as I close the category properly), but that maps revert to their default (i.e. auto-generated) terrain, landing zones, metal and CSG if I try to re-open the system in the editor after closing it.

    I'll try this out once I get home. That was probably my problem.

    I'd save at least twice, with one time while being in the editor.

    I have a theory on why it does this. Can you export the map and attach the zipped pas to this thread please?

    I had the same problem recently. Design some nice csg terrain and after saving nothing was there. :(
