one mystery adapter" is the real star here. That thing has been riding around in a junk drawer since 2011 and now it lives under your couch rent free. Velcro cable ties are like 8 bucks for a hundred on Amazon, wrap each cord into a loop and you're done. Not as pretty as those instagram cable boxes but it beats staring at spaghetti every time you grab the remote.

So did the go-to actually speed up your sketching, or just the finding part?

Wait, it actually overwrote your baseline? I thought Procore was supposed to keep those separate from the actual schedule updates. That's brutal. I had a similar thing happen when a drywall sub sent me a "quick revision" and it somehow pulled all their float time out of the critical path. Took me the whole afternoon to figure out which task got pushed back and why my lookahead was suddenly garbage. I don't trust the sync feature at all anymore. I just export their file, manually mark everything that's changed in my own copy, and only then do I import. It's extra work but at least I know what's coming in. The real kicker is that Procore doesn't even warn you before it nukes the baseline, there's no rollback button. So yeah, duplicating the project file every time is probably your safest move until they fix that mess.
