Ziggy - As I understand it you are doing the following:

1. Record a sit idle
2. Record an action
3. Record further actions - and the character remains sitting?

Posts: 1988 		Yes, the character 'remembers' to stay sat for all following animations you give them, regardless - however, I only encountered it the once, and it's probably related to the super heroes in some other way. I always download the full install so I don't have to mess around with the content packs, so I never encountered the superhero bug, but... I used the program for 7 hours straight without a hitch on a 265mb set two days ago. Yesterday, same set, it crashed out randomly while in the Timeline (while I was moving actions about, I think). However, I save often, so no biggie, just sayin' it's still a little bit wonky somewhere, perhaps

If you record a sit idle then anything after it is sitting, until you record a stand. If you record an action after a sit then that action is taking the sit idle as its base pose and, even if you delete the sit, once the action finishes playing it puts the character to sit. Try recording a stand idle and the character should go back to normal.
