everytime the map ends and saves i can find the bank file just fine and it has saved properly however when i reboot the map again before anything is saved in the bank if i open the file its completely blank.
I have the preload triggers, i have the open trigger. ive made a working bank before but it suddenly doesnt work. on that note my map that i KNOW worked no longer works with its bank and i was useing it just fine recently.
Do you have any AE damage effects or search effects in your map that can target items? This may or may not be the issue, but I know in the past my inventory was mysteriously dissapearing, ended up being a single search/damage effect doing it. Just a thought, good luck figuring it out.
sounds like you're not preloading and synching the banks before you open them to me. make sure it is preloading. they might have made it so you could only use the map -> preload data -> banks. but i doubt it.

that would be the classic AoE destroys items, that doesnt hit the banks that just a raw data effect when inv items arent invulnerable (items are "units"). that has nothing to do with banks itself. also this map doesnt use items for heroes.

they are preloading, like i said ive had working banks before.
it could also be that ur not saving your bank or ur not properly validating them if ur using that
its not a validation problem, im not using any validators to check the banks.
Let me be a little more clear what the problem is.
Game ends (bank is set to save here) so i go and check the bank and it has EVERYTHING SAVED 100% PROPERLY WITH NO ERROR.
Now when the map is loading and i open the bank it is STILL FINE.
as soon as the map finishes loading and i open the bank EVERYTHING IS COMPLETLY ERASED FROM IT (excluding the base things that appear in a bank file upon creation)
i have a preload and sychronize for all player numbers and have the open banks set up just fine and use a variable to store the banks for later recall to save.
Use a filename without special characters and without spaces. The effect you describe used to be created by bank file names containing a space which made SC2 able to save them, but unable to load them.

Still alive and kicking, just busy.

Would you post a copy of the triggers so we can see them?

my previous suggestions, do not apply here. the bank is being recreated because it cant find a bank. the bank is being recreated on open bank.
Use a filename without special characters and without spaces. The effect you describe used to be created by bank file names containing a space which made SC2 able to save them, but unable to load them.
Is this the case in your map?
