[Bug]: Changing repeater position while maintaining key messes up past pings

What happened?

I have changed the position of my repeater in its adverts and kept the key and name the exact same, but now the previous pings from before the new position have been cleared from the repeater and are now listed as (Gone). The repeater ID is 35353535 in the CO region.

How to reproduce

Have a repeater set with a valid position, then change those coordinates to something else while not changing the public and private keys or name of the repeater.

What should happen instead?

The pings should stay as valid data points for a repeater if the repeater maintains the same key during a position switch. When the repeater is selected, the pings should be highlighted as usual instead of not showing up as part of the repeater.

How bad is it?

Medium - Annoying but workable

Anything else?

I believe you're describing an intended behavior. If the GPS coordinates of your repeater changed by more than a certain distance (I believe it's 100 meters), the old ping data will be disassociated to maintain data accuracy. If the data should still be accurate, reach out to your region administrator to manually have that data tied back to your repeater.
