[PTU] Pokemon Tabletop United Character Sheet major issue.

For whatever reason, all of the characters involved in my campaign had their features reduced to one, erasing all of the features that we had added. This occurred for all PC, NPC and Pokemon characters.  Please for the love of god fix this. Features are what define a character, essentially. With the script deleting all of the features except for one, it makes it really difficult to even justify playing PTU on here.  Sorry if this is a bit dramatic, but it erased hours and hours of work from both myself and my players.

Disclaimer: I've never played PTU or looked at the Roll20 sheet for the game, but I have a suspicion of what might have happened. Did the sheet previously have a fixed number of fields for the characters' features? Does the sheet now have a repeating section (with "Add" and "Modify" buttons) for features? A relatively recent update to the character sheets system improved support for repeating sections, and so some sheet authors may have changed things to repeating sections that weren't before. Because the name of the attribute is different, it doesn't carry over into the new repeating section. If this is what happened to the PTU sheet, your features should still exist on your Attributes & Abilities tab, so you could find them and copy/paste to the new repeating section.
That may have been the case but the "Add" button has been a feature of the character sheet for the past week or two, it seems. It's been around for as long as I've been running the campaign, which is about 2 weeks or something like that.  Perhaps your theory is right, though. I had my players re-do the features on their sheets. I'm going to wait a couple of days and see if anything wonky happens again before I update that massive list of NPC's I had. D: Thanks for the reply, man.

Hello! I've been maintaining the PTU Character Sheet! Basically, here's what happened: I recently added some new functionality to the sheet, which involved looking at the repeating sections for a very long time. I then saw a bug in the code. Previously, Features and Abilities were actually  part of the same repeating field, which was a mistake. I corrected this, but, as you experienced, this left the features no longer visible on the sheet. Sorry about that. On the plus side, that new functionality I was talking about might be helpful here, assuming you've been using a certain automated sheet from the Pokémon Tabletop boards,  Headpikachu's Fancy Sheet . Basically, I made an addon to said sheet,  here , that lets you export all of the information from the Fancy Sheet into a R20 sheet, using a bit of javascript I cooked up over the weekend. Regardless, sorry about the inconvenience. At the very least, I promise it won't happen again X(.
