icon Equipment Stats not surviving room change (+1)  
Stats on custom equipment are not being saved once you leave the room you earned them from.

This can be seen if you do the following:
* Create a piece of custom equipment and set its _MyATK or _MyDEF appropriately.

* Give the equipment to the player using the Equipment Swap command.

* As the player, leave the room and save the game (you can quicksave if you like).

* Immediately reload the game. You no longer have the bonuses the custom equipment gave you. This lasts until you swap the equipment out.

Thanks for reporting this. There was a problem with custom equipment stats being reset on game load. I've fixed this in build 51. This fix should cause game loads to start functioning properly without having to replay any rooms.

Hmmm... applied the patch, and the initial bug seems to be fixed. However, many of my old saves do not reflect this fact. This may be because they were saved after reloading from a bugged save, meaning that the change became permenant at that point.

So some replaying of rooms would likely be necessary in this case. (Fortunately, I don't think any published holds suffer from this, so best to find out about it now)

Yes, I thought of that after I posted but didn't get around to mentioning it here until now. You are absolutely right.
