I ran into a problem today that has left me pretty damn disgusted with SOM for the time being.
I had the same map open in vmware as i did on my vista desktop, and i unknowingly created a new event in both sessions to this map. i then output one, and then the other and it corrupted my event file for that map.
now when i add events they are working in that map and some of them grab garbled data from other events that were working.
needless to say i lost my entire event file fora map that had probably 50 long events on it...so atm im going to try to recover it from an older file, but im still pretty disgusted about it.
The thing that worries me is whether i corrupted the map event file or the game database file that you output the events to.
more info on that after some testing, but please beware making the mistake i made...
