Default Modding Survey: What is the most annoying Error?

I'm starting on GenDebug, and I would like to know what you think is the most annoying error to trap and fix. I'll then try to make sure the GenDebug is capable of catching and fixing that type of error. I'm planning to include syntax checking, to make sure your tags are valid, and that the input is correct. I'm also adding a dependancy checker, to make sure that all of the referenced objects, upgrades, OCL's, and etc. work correctly. But any other errors that you can think of, and find difficult to correct, please post about them here.

The SoundDie thing I know it's easy to remove it's just when I am adding like 12 things at once I can forget to remove it.

Errors because something is capitalised (or not) in one file but not in another. Especially if the error is in CommandSeto or Command Button because then WorldBuilder doesn't pick it up.

Is this just going to be a debugger or a complete development environment?

Debugger, a complete Dev Environment is beyond the scope of this project. A Dev Environment would be nice, but would take a lot more code than a debugger. However, if I ever do a dev environment, this could provide the debugging capability that that would need.

I agree with that cos it happened to me 60% of the time i was modding my game (can be frustrating at times !)
I remebered when i tried to implement the tomahawk storm the icbm and the new skin for the us supply truck (from cncseries i think)
The tomahawk storm took me 1 day to work
The icbm half a day
But the supplytruck didn't make it (americavehicles.ini crashed too manny times ! grrr)
