Summary0009634: Roof tiles disappears in editor while drawing them.
DescriptionTonight I finally decided to try creating a roof for Darrell's new house. While drawing the roof tiles in the new editor, suddenly all of the tiles I had drawn disappeared! The editor acted glitchy as I placed even more roof tiles, sometimes showing a few, sometimes not. (It's a big house, so there are many roof tiles.) I finally got all the tiles placed, but the editor never shows any of them.

Forgot to mention, this bug is occurring in the new editor. I haven't tried creating the roof in the old editor.

Hmm, I can't reproduce, and I've edited stuff with the roofs extensively. It sounds like perhaps there was an error or something. Any error logs put in? If you have steps to reproduce this, also please let me know!

There was no error message, as far as I know. (My UnhandledErrors.txt has since been flooded with logs, all for one day, probably because of not finding music/sound files, which I am not reporting because you already know.)

The first screenshot shows the editor in Roof Mode. The roof tiles I've placed are all invisible. When I browse to other levels, I can see the roofs of other houses, so I know the problem is local to 001-A.

The second screenshot shows actual gameplay in Test Mode. Everything behaves as expected, with shaded interior and roof tiles when I exit.

The only problem at this point is that I can't tell what changes I've made to the roof until I run the game. Strangely, though, if I place a new roof tile elsewhere on the screen, it's not invisible.

I believe this was initially caused by placing too many roof objects at once. I can try deleting all of them, saving and closing, and then replacing them again, but I'll wait to hear from you first.

Thanks!

-previously, if you placed player starting points under roofs then the roof would not draw in the editor! Fixed.
