Material Settings Glitch

When I save the changes with regard to the THC in the materials area, it sometimes reverts them back to what I had changed them from before I had pressed "Save".

In the linked example, I unchecked "Use Auto Volts" and clicked "Save", which causes it to recheck "Use Auto Volts".

Save Issue

Any ideas?

I haven't been able to duplicate that behaviour.

Could you check in your ini file for [PLASMAC]LAST_UPGRADE and report the version.

Edit: A better version check is:

Buildbot Installation:
Run In Place Installation:

Phil,

LAST_UPGRADE = 0.090

I believe I ran it last before you pushed this latest update.

It may be worthwhile doing an upgrade although I can't see any changes since 0.90 that would have any effect on your issue.

This is the grasping at straws answer I know, but...

I'm willing to try anything, and I certainly appreciate the things to try. The weird thing is that I had this problem before, updated, it went away for a bit and now it's back. I've no idea where to look, code wise, to see if there's anything that might cause the unexpected behavior. When it comes to breaking software, somehow I'm your man lol.

Thanks again.

Cool, you can be the bug finder...

I'm game. Just ask the PathPilot guys, I annoy...err...contribute there regularly. Always happy to help how I can.

So I updated to the latest last night, and I was able to better define/replicate the issue.

As it turns out, it doesn’t do it on the 00000 default material. But it does on any of the added materials. If I switch back to the default the problem goes away. See the YouTube link below.

I know enough coding to be dangerous... if you point me where to look I’m happy to try to look line by line in the code and see if anything jumps out at me.

Thanks for that, it does do the same here. I will look into it.

Edit: Actually it is wrong for everything below THC disabled/Auto/Enabled

Ah that’s good to know. Glad to know I’m not going crazy!

If I can be of any help, please let me know.
