[Bug] New decks have no cards (Session tomorrow!)

Hi. When using the deck editor, I have been trying to create a new, standard deck of cards for my campaign. However, every time I do, there are no cards in it at all. If I recall, last time I used it, a new deck comes by default with the 52 standard playing cards one would expect. No matter how many decks I create or how many times I reload or toggle settings, there are no cards in the deck, on the field, or in any players hands. I'm not sure how this came about, although this game is a copy of another game, which i've heard might cause a few bugs. I've looked at every wiki and faq for a solution but can't find one. I'm not a pro member so I can't use the transmogrifier that i've heard of to try to copy a deck from some other game. Unfortunately I have a game in 15 hours from when i'm making this post, in which one of the encounters relied heavily on a deck of cards. If any staff member is available, I can send one a link to the game to see if they can, hopefully, help fix it.

Hi Gosts, If I understand correctly, the standard deck has disappeared from your game and you are unable to restore it? Any attempt to create a new deck will of course give you an empty deck; they must be created manually. I'm not sure if there is a way to create a new standard deck. Please corroborate the situation, and I'll poke around and see what I can find out.
That is correct. I wasn't sure there was a standard deck in the first place, but if that's the case, it's gone.

I have pinged the devs, but it is the weekend and they might be slow to respond. I do not think that there is a way to restore a deleted deck without a pro subscription, so you might need to come up with an alternative. If you have access to playing card images of some type, you can create a new deck in the normal way . If drawing duplicates is not an issue, you can create a rollable table that is text only. If duplicates are an issue, and you do wind up going with a rollable table, you can treat duplicates as a "re-draw". As a last resort, nothing stops you from creating a new, second game and inviting your players into it. It is a bit of a pain for everyone to switch over in the middle of a session, but if the card deck is for a single discrete encounter, you could all hop over to the second game just for that portion.
