Thing-invalid unique ID

[thack]

I need some help and cant seem to get a response from lonewolf.

I use the 3.5 D20 system and get the below errors when logging on. The only time i see an issue while in the program is when I am in the editor and Test and save changes I have made when i once again get these below errors.
I have tried many different sorts of changes but with no luck. This error existed before the last update and now after. please help.

File: New edits.user (line 144) - Thing-invalid unique ID
File: New edits.user (line 185) - Thing-invalid unique ID

My game is on hold becasue of this and could really use some help with this.
Thank you in advance.

Sorry about any lack of response. Most of us don't work on the weekends, so a query through the bug reports might take until monday or tuesday to get a response.

Here's how I'd go about fixing your issue:

Open the New edits.user file in a text editor (like editpad), then go to line 144 and 185 to change those unique IDs to something valid, or delete them.

Alternately, you could open the New edits.user file in the editor and click around the various tabs to find the 2 things causing you problems. The most common reason I see this sort of error is because I made a copy of something in one tab to see how it worked, used that to create something in a different tab, and forgot to delete the copy. Copies start with an id that ends in "???" which is an invalid character for unique IDs.
