Title: Bring Out Your Dead!
Post by: Dentrassi_BBQ on October 29, 2019, 07:42:40 pm

I would like re-animate one of my soldiers.  I opened the save file in Notepad++, found the soldier in the deadSoldiers block, cut him, pasted him back in the soldiers block and deleted the sub-block for death.  However, that gets me "Load failed yaml-cpp: error at line 755, column 2: end of map not found".  Line 755 is indeed the first line of my dead soldier, and his whole block is indented two columns to the left compared to the other soldiers.  What am i doing wrong?

Wrong indentation.

I'm just cutting and pasting, so i don't see how the indentation is changing...

Exactly this is wrong, it should not be indented two columns to the left. It must be indented the same way as all other soldiers.

But that's not in question.  My question is, how do i do this without this unwanted change creeping in?  I still don't know where the change of indent is coming from.  Do i need a different editor??

Dead soldiers are indented differently than live ones.

You need to make the change.

in the world of YAML, indentation is everything
