"This engine was made using a different version of..." Error

Hey all,

My second request for support - upon loading my old engines, which are supposedly compatible if opened and re-saved, I immediately just clicked 'Save' on all of them to re-save them in the Open Beta....however, now, every time I open the engine files, I still get the "This engine was created using a different version of Automation" message even though I have since re-saved the engine in the latest game version...?

Thanks!

Yes! That is a problem we noticed too, somehow the version number doesn't seem to get updated, while the rest of the engine does. Should be fixed during the course of the open beta. Cheers!

Thanks for the reply Killrob! I manually edited the engine LUA files and all seems well now, a bit of a roundabout fix, but good enough until the next update!

By the way....I could be incompetent, but is there a way, once you have an engine open to revise, after saving it, to quit back to the list of engines? So far I seem to have to double-click the 'X' at the top-right to take me way back to the Main Menu, then click 'Sandbox', etc again...?
