frustrated with torque

I know that design comes with errors and mistakes. But sometimes I just get so frustrated with torque to the point where I wonder why I even try.
Last night while attempting to place in new music in my main menu I accidentally saved an old file over my new one losing some of my work. The file I saved over was just an in game menu. Nothing too big, so I wasn't worried. However, for some unknown reason this caused the play button in my 2nd main menu page to stop working all together. I checked with my function and it's still there and should work..... yet doesn't. I've tried even recreating the button and found that it still doesn't work. So the problem isn't in the gui. It seems the my code which was working no longer works for no particular reason. I've had problems like this so much that combined with the loss of some work has really caused me to become frustrated with torque all together.
I was hoping maybe someone knew a reason why my function would stop working over night when no change has been made to the code at all.
The code I use is a simple load into a mission code which as I said worked before.

function loadCharacterChoice()
{
   Canvas.setCursor("DefaultCursor");
   createServer( "SinglePlayer", expandFileName("~/data/missions/charchoice.mis") );
   %conn = new GameConnection(ServerConnection);
   RootGroup.add(ServerConnection);
   %conn.setConnectArgs($pref::Player::Name);
   %conn.setJoinPassword($Client::Password);
   %conn.connectLocal();
}
