Anyone else having this issue.
I enter a new 'individual'. Set Gender, Race, Role etc in the overview category. Come back later, and the race is gone on a bunch of my entries. Actually - now that I check, seems like the Role field is not sticking too. Weird. Am I the only one? |

I've been getting it too, and not just on Race, also on Gender. I still need to go back and check if any other tags are getting lost as well. I THINK it might be for non-Local tags where it happens but I'm not positive.

I've also been getting this for Race, Gender and Role. Thought it might be related to multiple tabs open simultaneously, but after some testing it seems not.

I've done most of my work in a single tab - I think I had more than one open for maybe twenty minutes - and it strikes me, too. It seems to be that the default selections (Male, Human, Other) get lost on a save.
Temp fix that seems to work for me: change the gender, race, role selections to something else, save topic, change back, save topic. Do NOT just go in and reconfirm the existing selections. Also do not go into the tag list, change it, change back, then save. |

Yep, this appears to be a bug. We'll be investigating this shortly...

More on this bug - it seems I was wrong before, stuff vanishes anyway.
However, I've just tried something else that seems to be a consistent workaround until our lovely development team can isolate and fix this: Leave Edit Mode after saving changes. That has (so far) made it stick for me. |

FYI, this bug should be fixed in the new Build 129 Beta. If you see this happen again, please holler.

Yes, I noticed it looks like there's a new default "None" option. So far, it seems to be working well, but that's only with a day or so poking at it.

Looks like I'm making some new NPCs tonight, then.
Now I just need to figure out who and what for... |
