What do you mean you didn't change modes properly? I just tested your theory about it turning avoid aoe back on in grind, with and without fates, it doesn't happen unless you for some reason switched to grind mode twice.

that was pertaining to another thread pointing it out for ACE (really Im starting to think people don't read the whole thing)

but with your test simulate it like this. Grind for a bit change it to not avoid aoe... then switch to a gather cause maybe a node open up. then after a node switch back to a DOW then that setting will go back to avoiding aoe.

But the bigger argument here is this is a SETTING, something that people don't have to go thru every time, something that a user set it one time and change it to their liking... I can not think of any software or devices that you had to go thru settings so many times it defeats the purpose of automation.
