I have been getting a weird bug suddenly in a component that I haven't touched and had been working for over a week.

The error I am getting is:

ERROR Installing [Core Revisions], rolling back to previous state
Unable to Unlink [TomeAndBlood/backup/0/OTHER.0]: Unix.Unix_error(1, "unlink", "TomeAndBlood/backup/0/OTHER.0")
Will uninstall 454 files for [TOMEANDBLOOD/SETUP-TOMEANDBLOOD.TP2] component 0.

ERROR: Invalid_argument("Filename.chop_extension")


I've attached my entire debug file, but the part of interest is posted above. Any ideas on what might be causing this?

    @Wisp‌ any ideas?

    Update: This error has inexplicably gone away, even though I'm not entirely sure how or why. I did rewrite the entire ADD_KIT that was throwing the error, and it seems to have been resolved for now.

    Not without seeing more of the debug file (which isn't attached, btw) and possibly also the mod. The error is raised because a file which is expected to have a file extension does not have one. Stab in the dark, but I'd guess ADD_PROJECTILE is being called with projectile "foo", when it should be "foo.pro".

    Sorry that the debug file wasn't showing. It should be now. And knowing that it is a file extension issue will be helpful next time. Thanks.

    Okay, so you (apparently) forgot the ".2da" on the ADD_KIT 2DA. I'll see if I can introduce some better behaviour in these kinds of situations.
