Save / Load Keys - Anyone else having issues?

in Working with GS (Mac)
I'm having really unpredictable results with Save / Load Keys right now. Basically saving a bunch of attributes and then trying to reload them when restarting the game - results are really unpredictable.

Its something I've done successfully many times before with my previous games but I'm at a loss this time.
Is anyone else having issues?

    UPDATE:

    I have a number of attributes, each save to a KEY with the same name.

    However, on Loading each KEY back to the attribute they all seem to take their value from just one Key (regardless of which KEY is specified). I've rebuilt the whole thing without copy/pasting Load Attribute functions etc and still no luck.

    I have a corrupt project perhaps??

    Yeah I see weird result too...

    Yeah - it does seem to be bugged. I've gone back to an old version and started rebuilding, testing after each time I add a Save/Load Key. It seems to work fine most of the time - but other times the project seems to corrupt!

    I'm just saving as I go and when things corrupt go back to a previous version and try again. Not good.

    Best to use tables if you have several or more save/loads imo.

    @DeepBlueApps - true, but I've already built it this way now. In future i'll get my head around tables properly and go that route.

    I've rebuilt it and it seems to working now. There is definitely a bug in the system with Save/Load though!

    Yeah seems there's a few bugs with the new version but with tables you can just save the table and bang everything is saved so it's a lot better and if you ever want to reset the game to its original state (clear all data) just make a copy of the table or duplicate the original and then copy it back.
