Bug with the DOFF roster

I have discovered a bug with the DOFF roster user interface that has caused some confusion with some players.

If you select a DOFF profession, like say for example biologist, in the roster menu, and then switch to a character that does not have any biologists in the roster, then the roster will appear completely blank on the second character. Since the second character does not have a biologist, then you cannot even deselect biologist from the roster menu because the roster menu only shows DOFF professions that the characters has in his roster. The only way to fix this is to hit the "reset" button in the roster menu.

I realize that this is a minor bug and that players can fix it with the reset button, but some players who may not know about this workaround may become extremely frustrated. I have seen several players who may have been affected by this bug asking for help on the DOFFJOBS channel, and they were quite frustrated. Unfortunately, I just discovered the answer to their problem and was unable to help them in time.

Thank you for reading this.

    Yep this is an old and well known problem that has been around since we could narrow our searches for doffs. Good to know for some newer players who may have missed this in the past.

    Oh, sorry if I brought up an old subject. I should have searched better.
