Codeblocks Script Disappearing – Bug or Issue?

Lately, I’ve been experiencing a frustrating issue in Horizon Worlds when scripting with codeblocks. Very often, my entire script suddenly disappears, and even when I try to undo, it doesn’t come back. This forces me to redo everything from scratch.

Has anyone else encountered this problem? Is this a known bug, or is there a way to prevent it from happening?

Thanks in advance for any insights!

    The script is not gone when this happens, just that gizmo to view it. Open you build menu and go to the console page. On the left you will see the library for every script in the world even if there's no gizmo. You can hit the edit button right from there or even have it spawn a new gizmo, but those boxes are just messy anyway and I just use the library these days. It has just become more important to name the script immediately when you do pull out a new script gizmo while building.

          If you look in your build menu under Scripts, do you see the Library, and are any of your missing scripts in there?

              I would say this is still a bug...it's very annoying when this happens.

                When that happened to me I noticed that the script gizmos move to the center of the world.

                  This keeps happening to me as well and even worse I have to re-add the script to each obj that the script was running in which could be almost impossible sometimes and crazy annoying . I heard it has to do with fbs but not really sure

                    I have experienced this as well . However if you use desktop mode in vr mode I have been able to edit my scripts with no issues.
