Unsolved Building Architect: Export error

Hi everyone,

I hope you're all doing well

I'm experiencing issues with the new buildings editor.

When trying to export a building I have created, the export function does not work and throws the following lua error in the log:

--------------- << END <<

I tried to take a look at the buildingeditor.lua file, but the code is incredibly complex so I can't seem to make out what is wrong.

Has anybody already experienced something similar? Maybe it depends on certain mesh and material combinations. I can send my building architect .json file if needed.

I will probably also make a seperate post on my general feedback about this slightly buggy but amazing tool.

 

Hi Fluffy,

Thank you for your reply.

I did as explained on the website, but when I click on "submit information" it says that my game version is outdated, even though it is not. I'm on version 0.35.5 as indicated by the latest log file just generated today:
"-- Log started - v 0.35.5.0 - x64 - build 18098 - 2025-04-23 -- 16:26:31 -----"

I tried the same procedure twice. The error remains the same:


I'll make a file integrity check, but I don't think that will change anything.

Could you help me out further?
--- Post updated ---

I did the check, tried again and the problem remains the same @Fluffy Panda... Can I send you the information from the generated zip through other ways?
