Summary0005699: Rescued NPCs go to the first settlement, not the current
DescriptionAfter rescuing three or four NPCs on the second continent, I noticed that the number of settlers didn't increase in the settlement. Went back to the settlement on the first contiment, and all the NPCs I rescued had gone there, instead of the settlement on the second continent.

So apparently, the settler list in the continent status also shows the settlers in the settlement on the first continent, as opposed to the settlement on the second continent (which is where I'm standing). I'm kindof wondering if the same applies to materials as well in my case (as in, all materials gathered on continent one is still available to me). World-file attached!

I didn't do anything to explicitly fix this, but I looked at the code for this quite a bit in the last release and didn't see anything amiss. I've downloaded your world file, but not tested it yet. Can you or Josh confirm if it's still an issue in the latest version?

Just tested; Rescued an Igor Dubsky on the second continent, and he showed up in the settlement on the first continent.

Thanks!

* Fixed a bug in which rescued NPCs were always being sent to the first continent, but were then showing up in the list of the second continent as if they were there.
** Also made this retroactively correct the locations of any NPCs who were supposed to be in one settlement but actually were in a different one. That also will add some degree of future-proofing in case we run into a similar problem again. On world load, that problem would resolve itself next time.

You're able to fix it retroactively? Awesome. I had resigned myself to having to regather them all!

Yeah, there was no problem with the various windows and such -- which I had been looking at before. It was showing you all the NPCs _assigned_ to that settlement. However, those NPCs all got their traveling orders to the first settlement, heh. So while they were assigned to the correct location, they were physically somewhere else! And since they were somewhere else, that gave them their profession skills from that locale, etc.
