The tutorial and benchmarks leave your character alone
- Benchmarks: these dressed your character in their own knight's kit and never gave yours back, and anything the benchmark bot picked up (silk, gold) went into your real pack.
- Tutorial: this only held your kit aside. Skills trained, deaths and anything else in your profile still stuck.
- The fix: both now play in a sandbox. Your whole character (kit, gold, stash, bank, skills, stats) is put aside as it is when they start. That's what gets saved meanwhile, even if the game is closed mid-way, and it comes back exactly as it was when you leave, however you leave. God mode also turns off when you leave a benchmark early.
- New test: plays a benchmark and the tutorial through the real scene changes and checks nothing sticks, in memory or in the save.
