I think I hit two bugs this morning.

1. I imported some changes to a Language Center, and they came in just fine. Except for changes to the Emotion Ratings, which were ignored.

2. I exported a Center with some Once Only settings, and the Once Only settings were discarded. I don't know yet if they will be there when I import my changes. If not, that will be quite frustrating.

3. It would be nice if the Goto IDs were locked and exported, rather than recalculated for each import. The Goto mechanism for exported files doesn't seem to be very reliable.

Imported Jedediah after adding a Once Only as described in the notes below the Import. (Which I had missed. I'll read them through.)

The Once Onlys were not exported, and they were lost on Import. And the one I added:
I am sorry [1][0:5]
was not added either. It looks like a bug to me.

Has anyone ever fed those Fatal Error messages to the bot debug? I did and the problem was solved.

It is "a good thing to import export", You find your errors and any duplication, You can't import when your bot gets big, so do it while you can, to find your mess ups!

I live by the import/export myself. Using "user-friendly" interfaces generally feels like driving in first gear. It wuld be nice if we could do incremental imports. That would get around some of the big import problems.

I have never had a problem importing that wasn't mine..So I don't know about that..but I do miss the fact that I can no longer import Bildgesmythe..I strongly recommend using the import export feature.

incremental/partial imports would be an excellent idea, but could cause particular problems with (especially numeric) gotos.

So do I. I can't stand working on my language centre online.

>> problems with Goto numerics
One could be required to use string identifications for imported gotos and get around that. Are you saying the Gotos do not change with each import? I thought they were reassigned. Gotos do not export as numerics; they export as string identifers (thank Heavens).

I am successfully importing Only Once today, by the way. But the settings don't seem to export. And all I see in the Only Once column is a dot for '1' or nothing. I may have missed that earlier.
