copy scene then values for change attribute disappear

when copy and paste scene the change attribute behaviour "To" value previously set disappears

is there a way to copy and paste scenes so the "To" values do not disappear?

when there are many rules it is difficult to fill in again all the missing values

    Are you saying that when you copy and paste a Change Attribute behavior to another actor (you can't attach a behavior to a scene) or instance of an actor, the right hand side of the behavior (the second field/box) is empty?

    I think he is saying he duplicated a scene in the scene manager tab and when he did many of his attributes were empty on the right side of the behavior. There seems to be an issue with the expression editor and it not holding values overall.

    I was wondering that because I took it to mean the same thing (option-dragging a scene, for example), but as far as I know the expression editor issue is only related to direct entry of values, not copied values.

    Well if he didn't check he may have the issue in the original. I noticed for me sometimes the value is there but if I open the expression it's gone so it seems like sometimes it just not solid maybe that will cause the copy issue as it's not imprinted. I know the expression editor is jacked and on a change attribute that side of the behavior is the expression editor.

    I copy the scene and the "To" values for the Change Attribute behavior and Constrain Attribute behavior in the copied scene are empty and I need to manually set them again in the copied scene. It doesn't happen for all of the copied rules, maybe 70 to 80 percent of them. So if 10 rules are in the copied scene, 7 of the 10 are empty.

    You should report the bug: http://gamesalad.com/support

    That's different from what we've been experiencing with entering attribute values manually.
