Problem: NGUI Label's "Term" corrupted when I run was created by CGR
When I'm using the editor, everything looks fine (except, I see some of the "broken" labels are in Bulgarian, when I'd expect them to be in English) - see attached GameNotRunning (link at the bottom, it wouldn't let me attach).
However, when I run the game, the Term key is somehow being changed - see "gameRunning" (link at the bottom, it wouldn't let me attach), and so various problems then occur.
I'm not changing the term myself. I've not written any code to interact with I2 Localization in any way, I've just done stuff via the inspector. In fact, I have the same code on two other different machine and I do not have this problem on those machines. The code is in SVN, and I can see nothing is different across the three machines: but one of them is having this problem.
I just tried deleting my "Library" folder in Unity on the "broken" machine to force it to rebuild everything, but this has not fixed the problem. I had been making changes to the "broken" project, but since I noticed the problem, I've reverted everything.
If I "refresh" my terms while the game is running, I can see the new "blank" terms appear as unassigned, and the usage-count for the "now unattached" terms drops to zero; when I quit the game, everything goes back to the way it was.
I had a somewhat similar problem the other day, where I'd edit stuff in the Localize component in the editor, but when I ran it and stepped through the code, the changes weren't making it into the game somehow (in this instance, the inspector both while running and not running was "correct", but, stepping through the code, old values were being retrieved "from somewhere") - exporting and replacing stuff via CSV "fixed" this.
I believe I've set everything up as per the instructions. I'm using Unity 4.7.2/ NGUI 3.6.8.
Is there some "secret" cache for terms etc. that I need to clear?
I'm only just starting to look at localizing my game, I've only 33 terms and 3 fonts. Do you have any idea what is going on here?

Hi,
Are you using only the I2Languages.prefab or do you have any other source instantiated in the scene?
It could be the case, that if you have a source in the scene, then the plugin is failing to know from where it should get the term (the I2Languages.prefab or the ones in your scene). I have code that detects this cases and merges them at runtime, but it could be failing. I will double check this.
If you are using Google Live Synchronization by enabling auto download of the Google Spreadsheet (i.e. setting the frequency in the google tab to anything other than NEVER), then it could be that the downloaded spreadsheet is overriding the local data. Although, in one of the latest releases I fixed this issue and shouldn't be happening. I will double check that as well
If nothing of that is your case, Can you double check that the function AddSource in the LocalizationManager.cs is not been called several times once the game runs. That's the function to loads the source and adds the terms into the local dictionary for faster access.
If no luck there, then if you send me your project, or a similar one having that issue, I could look at how everything is setup and advise you of any issue and how to fix it.
BTW, I just checked, and the problem attaching images is that there was a limit to the size and resolution (max:800x800, 200Kb) I will try upping the resolution to account for fullscreen screenshots.
Sorry for this inconvenience,
Frank
