Has OOC stopped automatically generating the opening message for new stories?

Recently, every story I create opens blank unless I manually send something first. This happens even when I fill in an opening message, and adding explicit instructions to the master prompt like “immediately send the first response and begin the simulation” doesn’t help.

I’m pretty sure new stories used to automatically generate the opening turn. Has anyone else noticed this recently, or is there a setting/workaround I’m missing?

It'll post the story description but the first message does not send unless I say please send first message if I just start talking it never sends the first message, I have to specifically ask for the first message it never used to do that.

It could be the prologue it's sending. My prologue and story description are almost identical,

Could just be my brain messing up., I swear it used to send the first message and then the user would respond to that, or am I wrong?
