[2.2.13] No Cause Known at this time - Game silently failed to load map headers.
what happened
Upon startup the game was seemingly no longer recognizing and loading level headers properly.
All these levels have headers and yet the game acts like there's no info at all.
Furthermore, the game did not throw any errors on startup either when loading the file.
what I know
- The file triggered git's automatic line ending normalization when trying to perform any operation on it
- performing no changes and saving the file produced an abnormally large amount of line rewrites when the diff was viewed
- the file contained 2 map headers that shared the same keywords
- the file contained 1 map header that did not have a map file to accompany it loaded
- the issue seemingly did not occur within 2.2.11 but persisted across 2.2.13 and 2.2.12
- modifying the file in any way made the issue go away (the file contents are the same yet no bug occurs now)
I do not know enough about what exactly happened to cause this to be able to give a decisive answer on what caused this issue. and the lack of any error messages from the game makes this super difficult to debug. but I might as well file an issue. In the event it happens again I'll try to find out more.
