LMMS Corrupting save files

Having trouble with LMMS? Ask about it here.
I was working on a file when I noticed clips in the piano roll suddenly stopped being able to be copied.
I made the mistake of saving and reloading and upon doing that, everything is broken, half the clips are now empty

these things stacked ontop of each other.

The backup is also like this. Am I just forever screwed. Why does this happen. It's not the first time this has happened and it's heartbreaking.
In all the save file xmls, the missing patterns just appear as empty entries.

Code: Select all

 
 <pattern steps="16" muted="0" name="" pos="960" type="0"/>
 <pattern steps="16" muted="0" name="" pos="8640" type="0"/>
 <pattern steps="16" muted="0" name="" pos="7296" type="0"/>
 <pattern steps="16" muted="0" name="" pos="6144" type="0"/>
 
So its gone...

Edit:
It seems to be this bug:

I need to know more:
please post your:
* Name of your **Operative System** (Windows/ Linux/ Mac) And subtype (Home' 'Mint' '10.13' aso)
* lmms **version** and the *site* where you got it from

Remember that you have a penultimate version of your project <project-name>.mmp.BAK
DO find and rename that file asap!
Defaultly it will be in your project-folder, as defined in Settings
