Bug: Reset button reverts to last load.

    When dealing with saves on disk, the reset button reverts the file to when it was last loaded, not when it was last saved. This is different from the reset button behavior on server saves, which reverts to the last save.

    Try this:

    1. Open a file on disk.
    2. Make a change.
    3. Resave the file.
    4. Press reset.

    Your changes in step 2 will be lost.

    It should revert to the last saved state instead.

    A workaround is to reload the file after saving it.

    Just reload the save after saving again untill bug is fixed.(As far as you go)
    As far as the bug. I am not going to try it but I will take your word for it.
    I think it is not tooo big of a bug but it is a big inconvenience to TPT users. for sure.

    Your advice is the same as my workaround. =)

    Yeah; for me it comes in handy for electronics, e.g. trying new things or after using the console to replace an element type with another or set a property (like if I want to turn all INWR to FILT or set DLAY temps in just one component, I could save, use console, copy new component, revert, then paste -- that's the situation I notice this the most in, and I do that surprisingly often).

    I wonder why people just noticed it...

    If I remember correctly, this bug was present when I first played with TPT, i.e. in versions prior to 50.0.

    But anyway, I totally agree - this bug SHOULD be fixed. It's very annoying and when you forget to do workaround, you can lose quite a lot of work...
