Default Trouble with network nodes

I'm trying to build an object that I can save in a user library so I can reuse it. I need to include a task executer and a network node path. The attached simple model demonstates the functionality I need, however when I copy the object to a user library and then copy it back to my model the task executor looses its connection to the node path. Any suggestions on what I've done wrong.

Thanks

The connection is made through the network navigator which won't be part of your object (and shouldn't be afaik). Try making the connection with the contextdragconnection() command in the reset trigger or when the objects is dragged from the the library and re-created .

Thanks, Jason. I tried making the connection in the reset trigger and it worked.
