Hiding Categories Can Be Baaaaad.... :)

AEIOU

Well-known member
I've entered a lot of RotRL. And I've created nicely nested containers. And I've spent literally months fine tuning how things are laid out.

The other night I thought to myself, "Self, there's only one planet you care about, why do you need a category for celestial bodies just for one planet?" And so I turned it off, shut down RW and went to bed.

I tried to load the realm a few days later and it crashed immediately. Bug report.

I tried again later. Same. Again. Same. Again. Same.

At some point I decided to click "cancel" instead of close and I could get back to the Story Almanac. And it was empty.... Months of data entry gone.

Then I recalled that I'd used Manage, Categories just before the crash. So I unhid celestial bodies. And my data reappeared. And the realm no longer crashes. As it turns out, Golarian was the planet in that Category and everything else was contained therein....

Don't hide containers that contain everything....
 
Thanks for giving us the additional detail. We'll look into fixing this as soon as we can. And it looks like at least one other person got the same type of crash.
