Description
A Builder-to-Builder Load may result in resources that have missing detail.
For example,
- A female NPC may load as a male with the default head and no inventory.
- All lines may disappear from a conversation.
- All flags may vanish from a plot.
It is entirely possible that other errors may occur.
Workarounds
This doesn't seem to happen if you choose the following options:
- Show Dependents (which is not the default)
- Create New (strings)
- Do not select any resources which already exist (default)
If the target data base already contains a resource named X within module A, don't attempt to load X to module B. If A is not a parent of B, depending on the resource type, the toolset may report an error or attempt to work around the name duplication by creating a resource X_1. This can make the above-mentioned bug even worse (though it is not the sole cause).
