Summary

I tried a simple test with a sphere and a plane.

There's a quick MP4 attached to this thread to help explain what i'm refering to.

I applied the 'wood' preset to the sphere and hit the record button. 

upon finishing a sim of the timeline, the sphere 'resets' back to its initial position before the sim was applied, however the vertices of the sphere are distorted. 

If i disable the lucid modifier the sphere appears perfectly round like normal. 

I would expect the sphere to return to its original topology. Or the first frame to have the original topology. Is this a bug or expected?
