Unable to save game into savefile

I have attached the images as below, showing that my savefile has been created in the same folder as the jar file, as the program I assume automatically creates this savefile on boot to save data/games. However when I want to save a game, it tells me there is no such file or directory even though there is.

Their Response to the 'Original' Bug

[This is the team's response to the above 'original' bug]

Thank you all for alerting me on this issue!

I have found the error, it was a single line of code that was altered incorrectly when adding supports for Unit Testing. As observed in the various bug reports screenshot, the directory created was "savefile" but the actual directory is supposed to be "data" with the file name as "savefileX.txt". As a result, "/data/savefileX.txt" does not exist and kept triggering the error. Sorry for the hiccup to the gameplay!

Learning lesson: Don't edit the code in the last hour before submission

❓ Issue type

Team chose [type.FeatureFlaw]
Originally [type.FunctionalityBug]

• I disagree

Reason for disagreement: Should be Functionality bug since saving function doesn't work at all, feature flaw would imply that the feature works differently than expected or should work in a different way. Saving can be argued to be a feature but it seems more like a function since it's a core part of the product.

type.FunctionalityBug: A functionality does not work as specified/expected.
