This still happens... I just tried it out again. Some notes I can copy normally, but some copies (always copies of the same notes, as far as I can tell!) stay empty and encoding changes don't help at all.

Is the original note editable or uneditable?

If the note is editable, you can just enter edit mode and copypaste the text into a new note. Some notes always lead into creating a bugged note when they're copied, I don't know why, but at least now the bugged blank notes can be used and text will stick to them. I had one of the bugged blank notes created when I tried to copy a map that was editable and I checked the db and no entry was created for the note in the notes table but I don't know why. It had its own type id but there was nothing corresponding to that id in the notes table. In the past if you edited such a note, it didn't check if there was a line for it in the notes table so it just tried to update it and if there was no line to update, nothing happened, but now if the line doesn't exist, it creates it. Unfortunately this doesn't affect copying or creating new notes, only saving them after an edit.

Mayby check if pictures of map are on internal or external server. Maybe it's this issue.

What does this mean, it's happened with a few of my characters picking up notes or giving copies to other people.

It means that he deleted those notes. This has been mentioned somewhere before. If the event message was changed so that it didn't link to the object but copied the title it had at the time, that would make it better but it might require creating a different event message for passing notes and passing other items.

One was already grown up, another one grew up and I froze the third one since I already had an adult of that type.
