When saving scene, luup code rewrites code and takes out plus signs???

Developer's Corner General Dev Discussions

I’ve been using a scene for over a year. Suddenly, the lua code became corrupted I assumed. I put the code back in and upon saving the scene, the lua again becomes corrupted. Basically, if I enter the code below,

local i = i + 1

the code gets rewritten as,

local i=i 1

The plus sign basically disappears and a lua error is created when the engine restarts.

Any ideas??? I did create a new scene and that has the same issue. I feel I have covered all the basis.

Unfortunately Vera released a flawed beta as production firmware and this is a known issue.
It is fixed for me in the latest beta (my plus is on 7.2121) but it introduced some new problems, sigh.

Yeah, I’m noticing Lua code corruption as well, even stranger than your experience. Check out this weirdness:

if ( luup.is_night() ) then
return true
else
return false
e???

The “e???” was obviously “end” before the save. I wonder what gives. I’m using firmware 1.7.2414

Wow, never seen an emoji in my lua code yet… ;D

LOL Yes, and quite the appropriate one too. Before the forum decided to corrupt my code further, it looked like assembly language or something.
