How do i best perform an error search?

from Sins Forums

I`m trying to write a brand new entity and i get two bad results while converting to bin..

 

1. Conversion takes a very long time which i take as an indication something is wrong- so i go back to the workbench and rewrite.

 

2. Upon converting i immediately get an error message and the conversion is halted. This definately means something is wrong.

 

 

How do i know on what exact line in the file the error is located?

 

I`m spending alot of time just going back and forth so right now i`m just going in circles..

You could try the dev.exe. That will pinpoint the error.

why do you make a new entity from scratch? and why not just copy you an existing entity, rename it and make the value changes?

Copying an existing entity and editing it works, as long as you don't make an error while doing so.
