Re: Bug: More Export and Import Problems (Build 28) (0)
I was suffering from this problem as well. What I did was as follows:
1 - Go to the hold you can't export in build 28, and remove all the stairways.
2 - Create a new hold.
3 - Copy each level, one after the other, into the new hold. After copying each level, try exporting. When I did that, I discovered that the problem was with one of my levels, not all of them (but if any had stairs in them, they were also corrupt). If you do run into the problem, start over but don't copy the bad level.
4 - If you find a bad level, just make a new level and copy it room by room. Again, export between each room you add - this is tedious, but I managed to narrow it down to a single room that was causing the trouble. Also, if you do copy a corrupt room into the new hold, you have to start over.
5 - If you find bad rooms, you have no choice but re-create them.
Unless build 29 will have some way to repair old corrupted holds, this will probably be the best way to rescue them. It may be over-cautious (I'm not sure you always need to start over, deleting the bad room/level may be enough), but at least this way you can be reasonably sure the corrupt sections are gone.
