thanks for the response rif.
the restarting simulations was not stopped by myself and not rekicked off by myself - purely deadline quitting a task due to a timeout and then restarting it, so there are options of starting from a preset .fxd file or resuming.
problem is we are getting this weird behaviour even with simple files. a co-worker here set off a very simple sim - and rendered it. - then set the sim off again (after deleting the original fxd files) and the two simulations are different!!!
I could send this simple file to the afterworks people but it is very simple - no special setups, nothing kooky going on.
are we going mad?!
