Could not move macro file error #34

Open scify65 opened 8 years ago

scify65 commented 8 years ago

Upon trying to run any blueprint file in the newest LNP release (r20), I'm receiving the following error:

Error: Could not move macro file From: C:\Users\Scify\AppData\Local\Temp~qf151203213134-dig-blueprintfile..mak To: H:\DWARFF~2\Dwarf Fortress 0.40.24\data\init\macros~qf151203213134-dig-blueprintfile..mak

After exiting out of the error, the tooltip continues to report that digging is in progress and that I shouldn't move the mouse until I click or hit ESC.

I had the same problem. This error occurs if the macros folder doesn't exist. I went to the folder that it complains about, e.g. if it fails to execute the macro "D:[blah]\Dwarf Fortress 0.42.03\data\init\macros~qf160101161927-dig-exploratory-mining-50x50-a.mak" then I created a folder "macros" inside "D:[blah]\Dwarf Fortress 0.42.03\data\init". It works after that.
