Ugh, Map Editor

This has happened to about 50% of my maps now. Only the top 4 rows render and then half of the next. When I close the editor while on one of these maps it tells me "Operation is not allowed when object is open" and highlights

Code:

    DB_RS.Open "SELECT id FROM npcs ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1", DB_Conn, adOpenStatic, adLockOptimistic

The database is not already open, nothing is accessing it. It is a completely stock editor with a completely stock database, the only difference is that there are more entries, but there are no syntax errors anywhere or alterations to any of the tables.

It seems to make my map's lifespans around 2 months until they get this issue and then never return to the living. Which is highly annoying, because if I don't find a solution I'll be remapping around a hundred maps eventually.

I can't find the solution and it's driving me crazy.

Weird. From the screenshot it looks like all the tiles after a certain point arent being loaded.... Not sure though.

The error seems weird. Missing a DB_RS.Close somewhere? *shrugs*

If I am, then it's missing from every vbGore map editor since 1.0, which are all the ones i've had to test.

that would suggest its something in the database rather than the engine?

especially if its highlights the line in all of them to 1.00?

this happens when an npc that's on that map gets deleted from the database. simple solution to get your map back: pad the database with default npc info so the map editor has at least something to work with.

I've tried both methods, nothing seems to have worked.

If it's not a problem, could you post a dump of the npc table here?

I'm having this issue once again. I have no idea what the issue could be.
