Zones get wrong net assigned

[cgerlach42-2]

The README states, zones are not supported. I guess this is somehow outdated (looking at the functionality and the commits).
Still, they seem to get wrong net names assigned. I am not familiar with KiCad internals, but looking at the .kicad_pcb file there seem to be two assignments: net and net_name.
In the resulting file 'net_name' seems to have the right name but missing the hierarchical part (its '/netname' instead of '/subcircuitX/netname'). And 'net' refers to a completely wrong net number (different net than the one referred in 'net_name'.
This results in different net names being displayed int the status bar and the properties editor when the zone is highlighted. And of cause wrong connections.

Thanks for the bug report, and for noticing that the hierarchical part is missing. I'll take a crack at it this weekend.

If you have the chance, I'd appreciate it if you could upload a small dummy project with a zone and explain exactly what the plugin gets wrong? I'm a relative newbie at PCBs and have never used the Zone feature in KiCAD.

Thanks!

Pull request added. I did some basic testing, which passed the sniff test. I might revisit nets in the future to pin down a more durable way of finding net names.

Thanks! I'll take a look at it.

Just checked the zone handling: seems to do the trick. Checked with local net names, global net names and power nets. At least in my small test project.
I guess you don't need the test project anymore (just created it today)...

I'll definitely take the test project if you have it! I'll add it to our set of test/example cases so we can use it to check future software updates.

Quick and dirty test project.
Issue remaining is the unnamed local net (as mentioned in my other issue)

Thanks!
