| Adding stud.dat seems to corrupt geometry |

I'm working on a custom part that is basically a face with a 1x2 plate stuck on to the back of it. The face is a complex mesh with about 45k triangles (no quads).
To be sure my studs will have the correct shading in building instructions developed in Studio, I am adding stud.dat in LDPE. However, that step seems to "corrupt" geometry in some way. After adding the stud.dat lines, the resulting part looks ok in Part Designer, but not in Studio. Many faces have disappeared and the remaining ones look distorted.
I have confirmed that the files are identical except for the `0 Name:` line and the two lines that reference stud.dat like so:
Code: 1 16 -10 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 stud.dat
1 16 10 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 stud.dat
I also tried adding the studs in Part Designer, but this had a similar effect.
If I delete the stud.dat refrences, the part works again works as expected in Studio (after a restart).
Any ideas as to why stud.dat references are causing a problem?
Apologies for not including images, and thanks in advance.

| Torus naming |

I need a 5-24 torus (mixed-mode), but primgen2 is denoting any fraction other than the multiples of 2 with "99".
12-48 becomes 04
11-48 becomes 99
10-48 becomes 99
9-48 becomes 99
8-48 becomes 06
7-48 becomes 99
6-48 becomes 08
5-48 becomes 99
4-48 becomes 12
3-48 becomes 16
2-48 becomes 24
Should I just accept the name proposed by primgen2 or think about rotating a smaller prim?
If rotate a prim, then which is better; 6+rotated4 or 8+inlined2 ? The benefit of the latter is that the interface to the blocking element can be tailored.

| Sizing error on part 799 |

An issue with some really really (maybe needs another really added) old parts. Part 799 and part 800 don't fit together like they should. The peg at the bottom of part 799 is the wrong size to fit into the hole of part 800.
