Bug Description
To create a board array for manufacturing I use "append the board" feature and then copy and paste the board into an array. It seems that now when you do it all the nets assigned to tracks, vias, polygons and components are removed from the copies which messes up the array as soon as polygon pours are refilled. Which, in turn, makes the whole array unusable. What is the point of being able to copy your artwork if none of the nets are copied with it? I know there is a "Create an Array" option, but last time I tried to use it, it had all kinds of issues.

The nets are assigned to the pads, so if you edit a footprint it will then push the nets out to connected tracks, zones, etc. It just that the connectivity isn't getting updated or something.
