After saving a game I can't load it anymore because of the following fatal error message.
Using R2391 with pak128/535

jamespetts

This error is common with either corrupted saved game files, or saved game files from a later version attempting to be loaded from a previous version.
Download Simutrans-Extended.

How can one prevent a file to become corrupted?

Only the stated version (R2391/P128_535) was used.

I can become corrupt by either switching a bit on harddisk or by switching a bit in the meory before it was written onto the harddisk or by an error of the map during saving which wrote the wrong informations. (The latter can be prevented by XML-Savegames, which have a better chance of debugging and recovering lost maps but are twice as large. Switch it on in your simuconf.tab).

I'd like to but cannot find where. I found only one entry concerning saving:

# "binary" means uncompressed, "zipped" means compressed
saveformat = zipped

VS


My projects... Tools for messing with Simutrans graphics. Graphic archive - templates and some other stuff for painters. Development logs for most recent information on what is going on. And of course pak128!

BTW, the problem is happening at very first position of the savegame file.
On your screenshot, reading city is already fault.
Error log file should have more detail information about it.
