Uniform rank bug?

I am currently a LtCm, but when I select the LtCm rank option for my uniform, it wont stick. The Lt and Lt Jr grade both work. Can anyone else confirm this bug?

    I get this bug randomly where I can't choose certain ranks, usually Lt. Cmdr, Commander and Captain.
    This is usually accompanyed by lot of red text error message gobbledeegook on the tailor character select screen.

    Heh, that doesn't auto-update? You mean I have to go back to a tailor to change my visible rank? I don't think Commander Darter likes wearing his Lt. pips too much. :)

    I dont know if this makes any difference, but I'm trying to do the shirt sleeve ranks with TOS uniform. They look really cool :o

    I've had tailor bugs quite often.

    On occasion I've had to remove my armor before changing options would stick.

    Also, if you view or change one of your bridge officers and then try to modify yourself you will often get error messages.

    If I plan on making changes I always remove armor and open/close the tailor dialog between each character modified.

    Why cryptic doesn't make rank pips automatic is beyond me. Seems like a cheap UI oversight to me. I can see having the option of whether or not to display rank, but rank displayed should *always* be current.

    EDIT - Reply to Nagus above, yeah I like the ranks on the TOS outfit, I've found putting on visible armor over it make no rank show on the armor at all no matter what I do. (I think the TNG uniform does the same.)
