Debug Menu Not Working Properly?

So I've been working on a FC mod for the past couple of months and I just have a question about the debug menu.

So when testing maps and stuff in a custom story, everything works perfectly well when I pull up the debug menu. I can reload the map, reload form my current pos, etc. BUT when it is a map running from my FC, reloading the map and reloading from current position doesn't work. It does show the compiler and stuff, but it doesn't actually reload the map.

The way I've been working around this, as my maps begin getting a little bigger, is to put Start Areas near the places I'm working on/testing, loading the map from the "Load Map" button, then teleporting to that Start Area. Yeah, it works and gets the job done, but I miss having the convenience of those two buttons.

Is there a way to fix this, or is it just like this because it's an FC?

Replace your resources.cfg in your mod with the original one. Let me know if that worked.

It did nothing except make the mod unplayable. Menu didn't load properly, the main menu itself looks really bugged, and the first map doesn't open. Put back my mod's resources.cfg and it's back to normal. The debug menu buttons still don't work, but it's not too big of a deal. It just takes a little bit more time to test out my maps, but it's not too bad.

Yes, random side effects are expected while testing.
The point is to test if your resources.cfg is missing the entry /_temp
It happened to me once.

Hmm, it's there in my resources. Are there maybe any other possible solutions? It's okay if there aren't. It's just a minor inconvenience. Thanks for taking the time to help me though. Smile

Try checking debug your settings. There could be something wrong with how you set your Debug mode.

Try with a small new level, see what happens.
