Problem - CWTN Plugins Sometimes Revert to Default Settings When Switching Personas

I've noticed an issue with the CWTN plugins that can cause them to revert all settings to default when swapping personas. This issue occurs when swapping to a persona that was not your active persona when you logged in. For example, if I have a character with a warrior persona and a cleric persona, and that character last logged out as a warrior, I will log in as a warrior. If I then swap to that character's cleric persona, all of the CWTN cleric settings will be reset to their default values. Fortunately, this change is not permanent. It can be fixed by logging the character out (I believe you may need to camp to desktop actually). When you log in again, your settings will again be loaded from whatever saved settings you had previously. This can still be rather frustrating though because your character will immediately start unmemming all of their spells and casting stuff that you wouldn't normally want them to cast as soon as you swap personas.

this is a larger eq/mq issue with personas and not something we're doing directly with the plugins (or something we can resolve at this time)

it is most obvious with things that have an xml, but also on things that don't, like easyfind

EQ itself also has some bugs with persona swapping - spells you have on your blocked list will remain on you if you swap personas because the blocked list doesn't insta-populate. their system is pretty crap, imo.
