Saving Mission Results in Zero File Size

[Rex]

This is the error I see in the logs when trying to save it (I tried 3 times in succession):

I obviously can't attach the mission file since it's an empty file.

Do you have any 'bad' characters in your mission file name?

I'd suggest saving to a different drive with a basic name and see if that works first.
