Code:
"aX" = (/turf/background/sky,/turf/checkpoints/checkpoint2,/area)
"aY" = (/turf/cliff/Cliffdense,/turf/checkpoints/checkpoint2,/area)
"aZ" = (,/area) //<--- Line 52
"ba" = (/turf/cliff/Cliffdense,/turf/turfrender/denseopaque,,/area)
"bb" = (,/area)


Map.dmp:52:error: expected )
Failed to load map file C:\Documents and Settings\Setup\Desktop\Project~Sidescroll\Map.dmp.

Problem description:

I just finished mapping a part of my map when I updated, saved, and compiled it and it all of a sudden gave me that error. I don't know how to fix it, it just happened all of a sudden.

How do I fix it?

Sometimes there's (/appdsmfg0943tjernfkld/ategfd/43fgh/,,area)
(Spam is just there to replace names.)
Does the ,, have anything to do with my problem?

If you mean the line that was in the broken-down text .DM map, I look for line 52, it brings up the following, where "aZ" ...... is line 52.

"aX" = (/turf/background/sky,/turf/checkpoints/checkpoint2,/area)
"aY" = (/turf/cliff/Cliffdense,/turf/checkpoints/checkpoint2,/area)
"aZ" = (,/area)
"ba" = (/turf/cliff/Cliffdense,/turf/turfrender/denseopaque,/area)
"bb" = (,/area)

.dmp errors aren't particularly common and so I can't say exactly what's wrong. However, at a guess, I'd say that, somehow, some of your turf type paths have straight-up disappeared. What you can try to do for now if search through your .dmp file for "(," and ",,". Wherever you see those, just drop /turf in between the two characters. I think that should fix the problem, but parts of your map will be missing and you'll have to fix it. Fortunately, you can use the mapmaker's find function to find instances of /turf and replace them.
