Player can't edit Character Bio even though DM added him to Can be Edited and Controlled by

I'm not sure if I can reproduce this or not since I would need a helper. Here is what I did. *) Log into a campaign (My Paranoia campaign). *) Create a character. Add some BIO information. *) Set it to show up in your own journal and add your user as "Can Be Edited and Controlled By" *) Have a new user join game. *) Pull up sheet and edit it. *) Add the new user in the "In Player's Journal" and "Can be edited and controlled by". EXPECT: New user can edit the bio RESULT: At least one user was unable to edit the bio for the character

Please have the user that was unable to edit the bio come post. We will need his information and to talk to him/her directly. :) - Gauss
Alerted the player in question. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Hey there. Basically what happened is that when clicking "Edit" and the app transitioning to the editable version, the Attributes/Abilities Tab/Window worked fine and let me do anything as normal, but the Bio part remained absolutely blank. No way to enter text or even view the already present one. Editing the associated token was fine (as far as the set preferences allowed me to do so as a player), but the Bio remained blank from start to finish, even with Dustin presumably changing settings in an attempt to get it working. Edit: Just logged into the campaign to check again, and it seems to be working now. Notably the scroll bar down to the editable text entry window is now _actually there_, which it wasn't before. Seems there was a loading issue, though hard to say on whose end. My best guess is it was mine, since another player had some issues with their audio connection and at some point my UI started visually bugging due to their repeated re-logging. Edit 2: It might be worth mentioning that at no point I myself did log out/back in, so I never reloaded the app, which means any sort of loading error wouldn't have been able to correct iself.

Ok, if this happens again let us know and we can trouble shoot it further. I agree it was probably on your side of things and refreshing can sometimes fix single instance bugs. - Gauss
