Cthulhu 7e sheet bugs

Hi! I am going to run CoC on Roll20 and it seems to work mostly well. I have seen a few bugs that I don't know how to fix. 1) Rolling initiative from the sheet to the turn tracker creates a 4 digit number where the last two are the real initiative; the other two are like 10 or 20 or 40, so the Initiative count becomes 4035 for example. 2) Sometimes the Skill numbers don't show on the PC sheet when using using the charactermancer to create a PC. Sometimes they do show up as usual though and you can tell where to put them and they tick down as used. 3) Age doesn't work initially when making a character. At the end it tells you that you skipped Age, and then retroactively tries to fix and makes you reroll Skill points. Does this happen for everyone? I am running Pulp Cthulhu in particular in Chrome.
For 3 could it be because Pulp Cthulhu ignores the Age rules?…
Possibly that's it.  But the sheet still tries to go back and fix age at the end, and I don't see a way around it.

#1 There is an optional rule where you roll your dex and the degree of success gets added onto your Dex score.  On the settings page, under Pulp make sure you have Initiative option turned off and it'll only use Dex. Crit = 4000 + Dex Extreme = 3000 + Dex Hard = 2000 + Dex Normal = 1000 + Dex Fail = Dex Fumble = 0
Ah, that would explain the DEX thing. 
Hi Jason, we're gonna be looking into number 3, but I wanted to get more information on number 2 here: JASON H. said: 2) Sometimes the Skill numbers don't show on the PC sheet when using using the charactermancer to create a PC. Sometimes they do show up as usual though and you can tell where to put them and they tick down as used. Can you tell me a reproducible set of steps to get this to happen? What skill numbers don't show up? When does it happen and when does it work as expected?
We can't find a pattern.  Sometimes it just shows up, sometimes not.  It is the total skills numbers that populate for ARCHETYPE/OCCUPATION/PERSONAL.

JASON H. said: We can't find a pattern.  Sometimes it just shows up, sometimes not.  It is the total skills numbers that populate for ARCHETYPE/OCCUPATION/PERSONAL.  Okay, I think I  might  have found something. It'd be helpful to know which specific skills aren't populating; it seems to me like it's the "fixed" skills for the repeating skill lists like Firearms, Languages, Fighting, etc... I've definitely recreated #2 though! I'll work on getting a fix out for you soon, but my QA specialist for CoC7e is about to go on a much-deserved vacation. In case you need to make a character while we wait for that ticket to go through testing; you are allowed to just ignore that warning and hit "Finish" instead of going back to the age slide! We try as much as possible to follow this approach in our sheet designs:
