Loading a sub-application's frame position not working? [Fixed]

Welcome to our brand new Clickteam Community Hub! We hope you will enjoy using the new features, which we will be further expanding in the coming months.

A few features including Passport are unavailable initially whilst we monitor stability of the new platform, we hope to bring these online very soon. Small issues will crop up following the import from our old system, including some message formatting, translation accuracy and other things.

Thank you for your patience whilst we've worked on this and we look forward to more exciting community developments soon!

    Hi, I'm having trouble with saving/loading a frame with a sub-application in it.
    Below is a screenshot of my game at the moment I press "save".

    The left side is the visual from the base frame, and the right side is a sub-application window of a subframe dedicated to gameplay AI

    After I save, I am able to reset the right-side AI subframe to the savestate, but strange behavior occurs after I exit the application.

    Below is a screenshot of my game on the first frame when I load it up again after exiting.

    Ignore the blank left side, for one frame the AI sub-frame is loaded in correctly,

    however as shown below the very next frame it resets to its default state. Trying to manually load the data in produces no fruit.

    I have two savestates shown below, the top one is of the base frame, and the bottom is of the AI sub-frame.

    This is the relevant code for the base frame:

    This is the relevant code inside the AI sub-frame:

    Moreover, if I try to run the AI sub-frame on its own, I get a confounding error message:

    This doesn't make any sense to me since filename for the savestate I'm trying to load includes the frame's number in binary (11100)

    So, does save frame position save a sub-application frame's position? Does each frame's position need to be saved independently? How is it that I can correctly load the subframe just after its saved but before its exited? Yet once I close the application, loading up the savestate no longer works?

    I've been at this problem for a whole day, and I don't want to switch to using an INI object for saving/loading everything because there's just way to much objects and information across both frames. I'm trying to use this system for checkpoints, and I don't want to get rid of it because each section of the game is about 20 minutes long.

    Okay, I "fixed" it. There was a global value that was not cooperating for some reason, so I had to save and load it separately after the Frame Position had been saved/loaded, which resulted in the correct loading configuration. I guess frame states don't save the state of activation for groups unfortunately...this may come back to bite me or not, I don't know.
