This is a vanilla bug that occurs in the game Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine. It has been cross-checked with the OpenJKDF2 source code and is assumed to be affected as well, although this has not been tested.
The moveType property of a Thing is not synced correctly in the sithDSSThing_SendFullDesc function. This leads to a bug where the moveType set via thing parameters or changed through the COG function ParseArg is not preserved when the game is restored from a saved state.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.) Define a static Thing with a specific moveType using thing parameters.
Alternatively, change the moveType of a Thing dynamically using the COG function ParseArg.
2.) Save the game.
3.) Restore the game from the saved state.
4.) Observe that the moveType of the Thing is not correctly restored.
Expected Behavior:
The moveType property should be correctly synced and restored when the game state is saved and restored, ensuring consistent behavior for Things.

The
moveTypeproperty is not synced in sithDSSThing_SendFullDesc / sithDSSThing_ProcessFullDesc, resulting in themoveTypevalue reverting back to the template value for Things upon game restore.Logical flow:
moveTypeis changed from the template value either when defining static level thing or viaParseArgCOG functionsithMain_OpenNormal: sithGamesave_LoadEntry:170 b.) Remove all static defined things of loaded level viasithThing_freestuff: sithGamesave_LoadEntry:204 c.) Restore thing via sithDSSThing_ProcessFullDesc which resets move type to template value_Note, since sithDSSThing_SendFullDesc & sithDSSThing_ProcessFullDesc functions are used to sync thing over net it is assumed that multiplayer game could be also affected by this bug._
