Prefab Problem

[Edsel]

I have been building a lot of equipment prefabs lately. I have noticed that the prefabs do not seem to save the "Created By:" field under the Basic Info tab. I always fill-in my name and save the prefab but the next time I open it that field is blank. I am using Interim build v2.43

EDIT: I have noticed that this only seems to be an issue when the prefab in question is built while using my set of Campaign Rules.

So am I the only one who has this problem after all? I have found that I can recreate the problem on two different computers. Anytime I use my campaign rules it will not save the "Created By:" field.

I'm not sure prefabs are intended to record information in the Basic Info tab - that's for basic info about your character.

Perhaps someone more well-versed in Hero Designer Fu may know better.

Ah. But it will retain that information as long as I use the default campaign rules. It only fails to retain the data if I use my own campaign rules.

Of course this is not a really serious problem. Its more of a curiosity issue on my part. But if there happens to be a quick fix that would be swell.

The Prefab file Blah.hdp does contain this info at the top:
<CHARACTER_INFO CHARACTER_NAME="New Prefab" ALTERNATE_IDENTITIES="" PLAYER_NAME="ALADDIn"...

Which when you 'edit' the Prefab shows up as 'Created By' - ALADDIn

if that text is not in your files, then you "didn't" Enter it.......... I suppose
If it's not showing up in the JTextField when you Load in a Prefab to Edit it
it must be being overridden by your 'rules'

It could be something to do with Interim Build v2.43

I am using v2.42, and all of my prefabs I have created display the name in the "Created By" section perfectly.

This seems to be what is happening. The house rules (.hdr file) is interacting with the prefabs in some odd way. Any prefab created or used with this particular .hdr file has the name field deleted from the prefab xml and replaced with "". Now I guess I will just have to experiment and see if I can figure out what it is about this .hdr file that is doing that.
