[1.22] Criss-crossed variables
|
I was changing types of variables in the package editor after having imported a script. Basically, I wanted to ensure that my data record variables were data record variables instead of string literal variables.
The weirdness is random, and so I cannot get it happen reliably, but I can make it happen repeatedly. I looked at the value of one variable, belt_count, which was marked as a string literal. I switch over to looking at potion_names, which is a string list (and has the pretty string list array display). I switched back to belt_count and changed the type to autotype (out of curiosity), and the value of belt_count suddenly had the values from potion_names (it was empty before).
I wish I could give step-by-step ways to reproduce this, but it's a little too elusive for me to spend that kind of time on it. Sorry. |
