When Saving a Scenario that I was editing, the message below came up several times.

Scenario seems to save Ok. When reopening it appears that all changes were saved. Selecting Retry seems to save the Scenario.

The zip file consists of the latest edition of my db, the SE Log file and a copy of the scenario.

If you need any additional info please let me know.

Saved scenario with 2021.006 and save did not produce any messages and SE did not crash.

You may have attached the wrong zip file, all I see in it is your commondb.res.

I did a few quick se saves on a westpac battleset scenario and one of mine using hcdb2 database and no error message at saving 

Correct File has been uploaded!

Eric, so far I cannot reproduce with the scenario and database you provided.  Do I have to do anything special?  I tried both saving the scenario File\Save and File\Save As (using your pristine copy before each try).  

Hmm, there are 3,090 instances of 'buf' in the source code.  One that stands out is the scenario filename including path.  What the is the full path and filename of your save?  Example: C:\Matrix Games\HUCE\SomeFolder\SomeScenario.scq

There will be a buffer overflow if that full path + filename is slightly more than 150 characters.

Tony, looking at the whole path where I had the scenario saved the length probably is longer than 150 characters.

My file path was: E:\HC Scenairos\Spratly Islands\Spratly Island #4 Files\Spartly Island 4 Part 1\Spartly Island 4 Part 1 Final Files

Thanks,

I've widened that particular buf variable to 360=_MAX_PATH+100 characters (Windows has a quasi-limit on paths of 260 characters) and expect it will result in no more overflow for you.
