Well let's just call it foresight then, merlight!

I noticed nothing was being saved on PTS 2.1 and mentioned it to Ayantir ingame. He figured out that in this patch saved vars switched to ANSI, so files from live would not work as he mentioned in the 2.1 thread.

But I'm having a problem more dire than that - all saved variables seem to be cleared on initial game load.

I tested it with a dummy addon that just saves a few strings to a table.

Steps:

1. Delete all saved variables files
2. Start PTS and load a character
3. Save some data to saved vars
4. Reload UI and notice data was saved
5. Logout
6. Load a character
7. Notice saved variables were deleted

If you take a moment between steps five and six to check the files on disk, you should see that the data is still okay after logout. So the issue must be somewhere in initial game load since /reloadui also doesn't delete the data.
