using the level.t2d script file

I was working on a project and reloaded then when it came back, ALLL of my images were gone from the editor's screen. I was simply doing some copy and pasting of objects when it happened. Dealing with objects with same sceneObjects type, polygon, classes. and a bit of naming, tho I am aware there is a glitch in that if you copy something with the same name and class it can cause some problems.... anyhow, I have the script file of the level, levelThis.t2d. It has all my object info.


is there a way I can get my level back?


Concerned about time wasting.


Thanks.

no I tried that and no it just comes up empty. Like it just, the scene, disappeared.

You can try hitting "Ctrl ~" after you open the scene and seeing if there are any error messages.

I don't know if there will be anything there, though, as I rarely use the console in the builder.

I had named a group of objects in a class in this structure: "cTTrailer3-1A" I thinks the "-" is the cause?



That's where the first error showed.

Heavens be praised. It's fine. I remember thinking, should I use the "-" sign in the name of objects and just thought that since it was in quotes, I know, so stupid, that it was a "name" that I could use it like that.

All of my sprites vanish when I put a scroller above layer 30. Very strange.
