Discovery Zones Move Between Saves #69

While creating an unofficial 7x7 map my friend and I created the map in the Server Grid Editor and then exported the ServerGrid.json file and began to edit in a text editor to add the Discovery points for the Power Stone Quest.

To find the correct rotation and x/y/z positions for the Discovery Zones we were using a Google Sheet tool found here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1a-9t4KwN8_kKEg4n6tZcqLsv8p4ce2Kjaoh1Tu2LKMs/edit#gid=1992771100

I noticed upon loading the json file we had manually edited in the Server Grid Editor that the discovery zones didn't line up properly with the PVE islands. For example: https://i.imgur.com/B1gTycb.png

Most were the correct rotation but a little too far left/right/up or down. But one Discovery zone was in completely the wrong grid!

I exported the json file from the Server Grid Editor and compared it to the original file that I had edited it by hand and I found a lot of the discovery data had been moved to other parts of the file. Apologies for the big screenshot but this is an example where it was deleted (hand edited on the left - freshly exported from the Server Grid Editor on the right): https://i.imgur.com/ct6V67s.png

I found that Discovery data a good way further down the json file and this is why it was spawning in a different grid: https://i.imgur.com/c7AyvMs.png

I'm not exactly sure what is causing this. Whether when I edited the file by hand I missed something or if the json file is manipulated upon being loaded but it means we can no longer use the Server Grid Editor to maintain our json file.

If there is a fix to this I would really appreciate hearing about it.
