When creature passives are updated, the "Title" is not updated (although the descriptor is) #22

One common change in the current campaign I am running is for creatures is to have Negative Healing (pre remaster) to having Void Healing post remaster. When this is updated, the description is updated via this tool, the description is updated but the "title" or "name" of the passive trait is not:

Note: The "title"/"name" should say Void Healing. Here it is directly from the beastiary: image

Creature example: Corpselight

Hi @soch0601 I cannot understand what you mean with this. When I update my Corpselights from Abomination Vaults, using Refresh it changes from Negative Healing -> Void Healing.

Am I misunderstanding your issue, and you are requesting the opposite?

So for some reason it did not update the name for me, only the text. After running it for my corpselight on AV, I got the above result.... image

Although it is weird, other creatures that had the same thing worked out fine...

I think I have discovered some useful tidbits - the ones it doesn't refresh the name on are tokens that are already pulled out from the actors tab. If you have an actor in the actors folder it works fine. But sometimes for ones pulled out on the map it has an issue where it doesn't update.

Step1: Pull in the plague zombie (old version) into the actor's area from the compendium Step 2: Pull the plague zombie onto a scene Step 3: Make a change to the tokens sheet (I updated the picture) Step 4: Make the change by opening the token's character sheet - then going to the revitalizer from there Step 5 update Negative Healing to Void Healing Step 6: Pull out a new token from the actors tab onto the scene

Note: The Token pulled out from step 6 has the correctly named ability (Void Healing), whereas the token pulled in from Step 2 has the wording updated but not the name.

I am sorry, but I cannot seem to be able to reproduce this. Most of my Bestiary creatures have Void Healing already.

Perhaps there is some internal handling from PF2e to trigger negative/void spirit/alignment etc., as those are special cases for how they need to be handled? I.e. renaming one feat with that slug triggers renaming them all or something?

If you find another way to assist me in reproducing this, then I can look into it further
