author field in editor does not work
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Using the Attributes -> General menu and adding my name as the author does not work. The author shows up as "Unknown Community Author" on the mission loading screen. When I open up the mission.sqm file, it looks like the author attribute was never written to it, even though I see the other attributes I've added ("briefingName, overviewText, onLoadMission). When I create a description.ext file with the author field in it everything works fine.
