I have been getting the following error when trying to name any new ship: Error in ShipNameisused procedure! USA subs Idx: 0 List index is out of bounds (0) This popup sometimes spams infinitely, and cannot be closed, meaning I cannot save the game. I have attached the save. Every one of my campaigns in this game so far - modded or unmodded - has ended by the save file being corrupted. Please tell me whether or not this issue will do the same. I have not touched the ship files, but I believe I'm running the quality gun mod. drive.google.com/file/d/1UdGL8IglPvxs0a7d-MGN-OPIN2tODzTb/view?usp=sharing |

EDIT: Save may or may not be corrupted. I loaded a save, and got the error 'log lines out of synch.'
EDIT2: Save is definitely corrupted. A bunch of torpedo bomber and dive bomber aircraft models converted themselves to fighters mid - battle, and now appear as fighters in the aircraft types screen. That's new.

I'm not sure if my save never corrupted or if I just didn't notice though |

generalvikus Are you running the Steam or Matrix release of the game?

It may be worth mentioning that the same save is now completely lost for a seemingly unrelated reason (see my other bug report.) When the air wing switching issue happened, I was able to reload the save and the issue simply didn't repeat. On this occasion, I had just overwritten my backup save, so I couldn't recover it. I continued to get shipnameisused whenever trying to save a design, but it wasn't gamebreaking. Like I said, I've played maybe ten saves in RTW3 since release - all were corrupted, and all but the first one didn't last longer than one war. I don't know if others are experiencing bugs as severe as mine, but I suspect the Steam reviews would be far worse if that were the case. I wonder if it has something to do with the save location, since it seems to be different to others. Is there a way to change the save directory? |

generalvikus I've now finished running your original posted save through 23 months of gameplay and have not noted any significant issues, including also renaming a number of new ships with no issue. We don't see many reports of corrupted games; I would first recommend that you run a scan on your drives for errors, see if they are ok. If that is not an issue, then we can look at some other possible factors.

Out of curiosity, where is your game located? What drive and file structure? I suspect I have issues stemming from file placement as well. |

Here is a good article detailing how to scan a drive: www.lifewire.com/how-to-scan-a-hard-drive-using-error-checking-2624497Please let me know what you discover, thanks. |

C/Users/[username]/Documents/My Games/Rule the Waves 3/Save williammiller is there any way to change the game's save directory? Sorry, no current way to alter the save path and make it work perfectly; due to Steam compatibility issues the save location needs to be a common one. I'll fwd this to Fredrik W and Matrix to see what they think. |
