KNOWN BUG: WON'T FIX: Editor crashes when I try to open some scenarios

[KINGBEN]

All other scenarios open ok. I have 1.09.

Also I can play the two named scenarios in the game itself without problems.

When I open the two named in the thread title it shows me the following message;

Critical error!

---Error : (Country: Unexpected field) 'flagname = UK' Line = 6 file = scenarios\1795\1795_eng.inc.

What should I do to allow me to open these two?

The scenario editor was not updated for a while

The error is because the scenario editor expects the old British flag change command to be 'command = { type flag which = 6 }'

Of course this old flag command put 'flag = 6' in the scenario file. (it changed Englands flag to the Union Jack)

However the new command is 'command = { type = flagname which = UK }' (changing the flag to the Union Jack - a command other countries can now use).

The scenario editor obviously does not recognise the new command. Go into the file specified and delete 'flagname which = "UK"'. Make your changes using the editor should you require, and then put the line BACK in when you have finished.

EDIT: The file is the '1795_eng.inc.' text file in the 'scenarios\1795' folders.

Most modders now do things by hand (using text editors) rather than the scenario editor.

I seem to be doing that more these days. I am currently defending the English culture from excision or distilation in the CK Culture thread/Beta forum.

I want to cry. I feel so ashamed.
