Massive corruption in Saved data ["!!!!!!!!"]

Hi Team,
Some people have been reporting issues in AIReasearchGrid.
One of the users gave me his data file and it has this at the top.


AIRG_SavedVariables =
{
["Default"] =
{
["!!!!!!!!"] =
{
["$AccountWide"] =


How on earth can it get an account variable like that?
Remember that part of the file is set by ESO not me..

Anybody seen this before??

Maybe the user just removed the @name by hand?

!!!

I'm reasonably sure the user did not edit the file manually as he would not be surprised the addon stopped working.

Just to add to it, there were several character name keys of the form "!!!" as well as well-formed one.

Very odd

That's just mean! The AIResearch.lua file is normally a few hundred Kb. A meg or so if several accounts are used on the same computer. So I don't think its the same bug though perhaps related.

This one has uniformity in that the account and char keys are variations on ["!!!"].

perplexing.

Maybe it has to do with the fact that you are browsing an achievement that is not supposed to be in game.
Ancient Orc will be available only after Orsinum release.

Shouldn't think so. If the achievement isn't there, its not there.
If it is there (PTS) it works fine.
