I'm not sure this applies to you, but when I republish the arc, it updates on the server for anyone who starts playing it, but the copy I get if I edit it again somehow does not update. This means if I edit it a second time, the copy of the arc I'm working on rewinds back to its previous state, and if I republish, the previous edits are lost.
Logging out to the character select screen then relogging back in gets me a correctly updated arc to edit. Changing zones might work too, I haven't tried that.

I've found that simply selecting the my published arcs tab and clicking SEARCH fixes the problem. There must be some kind of ID cached with your list of published arcs, and searching again refreshes it, syncing your display with the MA server.|

I'd guess that previously published arcs sit around on the server for some amount of time because if someone else is running an arc an instance of it needs to hang around until it's finished. They can't just give you the new one because you might be on mission 4 of 5 and the new arc might only have 3 missions.

Thanks Rigel. Your advice has been rather helpful |

I'm a veteran when it comes to AE. I've got 20 published missions so far and I've gotten to be quite adept at the logistics of mission creation and mission editing, however in the last two missions I've created I've had some serious problems.
For starters some of the characters I've created wont say the dialog I've written for them.
I'll write it. Then I push the "Republish and Exit" button. And I'll get a message that says that my mission has been updated, but If I play the mission or go back and check the text later, I'll find that the dialog is no longer there.
Sometimes I have the same problem for animations.
And on at least two occasions, I've added a whole mission to the arc, clicked "republish and exit" and even though it told me that the arc had been updated, when I went back and checked later the entire mission was missing!
What's going on?
