Stop crying like a little baby and start saving copies of your project and you might feel better.
70 actors is nothing, many of us have hundreds or thousands of actors working without problems.

If you work on a project for hours(!), why in the world would you not save it every now and then.

Dude, save every 5 to 10 min. Gamesalad rocks.

You must get used to saving on a regular basis, it becomes a habit after a while and you will do it without thinking.

As for GS sucking its actually very good for people who can't code.

Exactly @DeepBlueApps ! My habit is so strong that when i'm stuck with problem solving, I keep saving:P

You should always save often and back up your work when using any software, not just Gamesalad. Sorry to hear you lost work, but it's not Gamesalads fault.

Save your projects in different files because if your projects run into trouble (gets corrupted for example), you could always have backups.

I work like this: I start a new GameSalad project - but I don't give it a name or save it to my hard drive - I just keep the project in RAM and work on the untitled/unsaved project until it's finished, sometimes that could be weeks or months, you obviously need to leave your computer on during this time, but so far nothin& h%$ g&ne wro^&ng andIhs& &9 *(&9...... .. .. *90)) [bzzzzzz] [bzzzzzzzz] *9) &&9090090000330303030001oom mo omm chicken nuggets.

Legend says that if you look really hard into the code, you can see @Socks there staring back at you...

closing this. next time save often, multiple copies and use a real backup solution to be safe.
