    Important Map Editor Bug

    I was building a map using: Add New Objects>Far Cry 4>Structures>Military>Houses. However, when placing some houses from this section of the editor, they often glitched and turned into the models of houses in the main Far Cry 5 game. I figured out two ways to make this happen. The first is to delete the FC4 house model and then use the "undo" control (see attached video). The second is to save the map, exit the map editor and Far Cry Arcade, and then re-enter Arcade and try to reload the map in the editor. Both of these methods result in the Far Cry 4 models being replaced with house models from Far Cry 5.
    This same incident has occurred in other ways, as well, but I have not been able to reliably recreate those. The two methods described above, though, cause the problem every time without fail.
    I am worried this will require an update to the game to fix it. Please respond with help if there is anything I can do from my end to solve the issue.

    Same here

    Having the exact same issue, using FC4/Structures/Military/Houses, when I save and reload the map those are replaced with FC5/Structures/Residential/Houses. I'm guessing it has to do with both assets are identified the same way on some level. In my case FC4 "House Large Exterior" was being replaced with FC5 "House Large 01"

    Sucks because these little FC4 structures are a perfect size and layout and there's no good substitute in the other collections. Also sucks when you've spent a lot of time adding climbing ledges, etc. to the structure only to have it change into something else. :\

    This does indeed require an update, to the Editor's object_inventory. Both objects use the same Id.

    This issue has been submitted before, I don't really know what's taking them so long to fix it, it's rather trivial to do

    Has this issue been fixed yet? I haven't updated in a while due to no Wi-Fi, but it's been plaguing at least two of my maps

    Yes, it has been fixed. Both objects use their own ID.
