Inaccurate display of welcome message when savefile changed #2

Open SongZijin opened 1 year ago

SongZijin commented 1 year ago

When the format of the text saved is edited to be different from the original version, the program is capable of handling this properly, however, the welcome message will display that there is no save file, despite being able to list the contents in the save file. An image of what is displayed is shown below:

Team's Response

Wrong error message

The 'Original' Bug

[The team marked this bug as a duplicate of the following bug]

Program views erroneous file as "no save files detected"

By first editing the save file to some possibly erroneous values as shown below,

when program is run, it reflects that there are no save files and treats the user as a new user

this results in user possibly being unaware of file errors and why their previously saved files do not show up.

Their Response to the 'Original' Bug

[This is the team's response to the above 'original' bug]

This incorrect error message is a flaw that is unlikely to affect normal operations of the product. Appears only in very rare situations and causes a minor inconvenience only. Therefore it should be a low severity.

  • it is purely a wrong error message, the program does still read in and parse the save file
