    Default I've lost my mojo

    I can't seem to add a new building. Anywhere. I've tried several different building trees (all with much less than 9 existing buildings), and the game always CTDs right when it parses that building.* Any idea what I'm doing wrong? I'm just copying code from another building and pasting it in, then changing the building name and making sure that building name is in the building levels for that tree.

    I did a quick search and definitely have less than 295 buildings total.


    *I know this because I put CHEESE! in a file near the error, then move it about till I've narrowed down the location of an errorless CTD. The goal is to put CHEESE! as late in the file as possible without getting a CHEESE!-related CTD.

    Errorless CTD in this sense are almost always related to missing/incorrect entries in text/export_buildings.txt.

    *facepalm* Yes. For some reason, I missed checking the "Check for missing building descriptions" box when I ran it last time. I strongly suspect that's the problem, but I'll have to wait till this evening to fix it and confirm. Thank you.

    Yep, Netcraft confirms that I am, in fact, an idiot. Thanks again.
