Corrupting Save Issue

[Rayd12smitty]

Hey guys… It's been a while since I've asked for help here. I'm having an issue with save files becoming corrupted that has been happening pretty consistently to me.

Spoiler:

Pops up when loading up game. When I click "Ok" or "X Out" it pops up again once or twice more. Then the game loads a tiny bit more (I think)

Then this pops up. Again, usually multiple times.

Then the load menu comes up and the game crashes with this error

Ok so details. I wasn't sure where to post this since my game does use a custom script for multiple save files, but I was getting this error before using it. Before updating to essentials 15 version, I never had this issue, and was using my own little "multiple save file" script I made. It was poorly done though and had other issues. When running essentials 13 it never crashed the game like this though. Then, after updating to 15.1 I started getting these error messages and saves started getting destroyed. I switched to mej71's multiple save file script, thinking it was an issue caused by my "work around" save script, but I am still getting these errors when using mej71's script, even when not using multiple files. I didn't put this in that script's thread since I don't think it is caused by it.

The problem starts when I try to save in game, but not always. I could save perfectly fine 20 times, and suddenly it stops working. It will just say "Save Failed" and won't crash, but no saves after that will work. Then when I exit the game and reopen it, these error messages pop up.

I've gotten good at reading error messages, but I have no idea about the first two. Could anyone point me in the right direction, or had similar issues before?

Thanks!


EDIT: I did further testing since posting this! I found that the crash is 100% (or very close) related to the gen 6 project's PokeCenter Healing Balls script I am using. I saved before healing, then tried after and got the crash and corruption. I am not using the full Gen 6 pack, just that one script. Why does this cause the crash/how can I fix it?

I reprised that script a few days ago, please overwrite it and the affiliated events

You're a life saver. I've spent weeks trying to figure this out and it figures I narrowed it down to the Healing balls script minutes after posting a question thread. I was just about to see if anyone else had reported this in that thread! Thanks so much. I believe that did it.
