Description

When I have two events containing the same quantity of connected characters or organizations, switching from one of those events to the other results in the icons failing to update, and displaying incorrect connections.

This does not occur if the quantity of connections of like types differs between the two events (e.g. 1 Char, 1 Org; 2 Char, 2 Org).

This does occur if the quantity of connections of like types is the same, but unlike types differ (e.g. 1 Char, 1 Org; 1 Char, 2 Org). In this case, the type of connection with differing quantity will work as intended, while the type with the same quantity will fail.

Steps to Reproduce

Create two events on a timeline

Add the same quantity of character and/or organization connections to both events

Click the first event on the timeline to display its content.

Click the second event while the first one is still open.

Hi there! Good catch with this one. It should now be fixed. Give it a try and let me know if anything is wrong.

Thanks for looking into this! It looks like this fix has resulted in the correct connections being displayed, however now I am noticing that the images will fail to load if no connection of that type was previously displayed. For example, if I have an event open with no connections, or no event open at all, and switch to an event with one character connection, I will see the (correct) character displayed as the character's initials, and no image. If I switch to another event with a character connection, however, the image will load properly.

Another round of fixes went out today. Try it out and let me know if any issues persist

This doesn't appear to have solved it unfortunately, and has now introduced a new issue: Sometimes switching from one event to another will result in entire connection categories not displaying at all. So far I haven't been able to figure out a definite pattern to replicate the missing categories, but I'm seeing it pretty frequently.

Hi! Sorry for the long delay, I had to take a long leave of absence. A lot of fixes have gone out since and currently I cannot reproduce your problem. All the connections and portraits are showing correctly for me. Is this still a problem for you?

ttblaze Assignee

There has been no response in a week so I will close this bug to clear the board. I will still be monitoring the thread so feel free to reach out with any news.
