Has anyone got this problem today - its driving me crazy and got me repeatedly redoing and saving the same script changes (1) I edit a script, save it, and the editor reports a successful save. (2) I run the script and the changes do not appear. (3) I reopen the script and the text changes are not there. This only started this morning and isn't happening every time. I have tried both the current Linden Viewer and the latest Emerald viewer - i am on a Macintosh Intel OS X 10.4.11 I have also edited the scripts in another sim and had the same problems These past few days I have experienced a few asset server problems when saving scripts but these are a fact of life in SL. This is beyond a joke as my deadline is Friday  |

I've sometimes had things like this happen; I've attributed them to asset server "issues", and they've usually cleared up after a while. A quick glance at the forums suggests these sort of problems are pretty widespread today, and not just limited to scripts but affecting inventory in general. Something related to the server updates maybe?
A paractice I'm trying to make into a habit is to copy a freshly edited script into my clipboard before compiling it, and pasting it into Notepad or LSLEditor when the changes are substantial.

Thank you for the feedback and the knowledge that i'm not alone with this problem. Yes, i've been using your copy to clipboard method but after a while it became so tedious and unproductive that i gave up, took a break, and after returning the problems were still there. Hopefully today will be better. |

this is why I almost always use an outside editor now, even if it's just notepad... update any code changes there and then cut and paste it into the script... I've had multiple major changes get eaten once upon a time and have to go through it all again because the asset server choked (and worse I had to try to remember all the changes I made)

I like to use google docs for this, that way I can work on a script while I'm at work.  |

This sounds like part of a great line of features for a third party viewer.
• saving script and notecard edits
• keeping a version history
• using a version control system like Subversion
• using remote storage
• perform syntax checks as you edit
in other words the sort of things we use external editors for now, just tied directly into the viewer with a "Save to Grid" command
