Kstars 3.6.9 filename / format behaving strangely

A few weeks back I experienced capture files stored remotely as "/root/IMAGE_XX.fits" even though my sequence stated "/telescope" on the remote machine. No amount of editing the .seq file and saving different sequences seemed to fix this.
I assumed maybe there was an error in the format statement so reset to default but with no change.
I then created a sequence on my laptop and copied to my desktop and ran a scheduler sequence using this. Some improvement as it now writes to "/telescope/". I have format as "/%t/%T/%F/%t_%T_%F" but it's writing files in the form '/telescope/Light/Green/Light_Green_061.fits' ignoring the target which is set in the sequence file.
I tried copying and editing the sequence file to change the filter to red to make sure changes were taking effect, and I see the following in the logs:

2024-02-20T13:28:59 Capturing 1.000-second Red image...
2024-02-20T13:28:59 Received image 8 out of 10.
2024-02-20T13:28:59 Remote image saved to /telescope/Light/Green/Light_Green_059.fits
2024-02-20T13:28:58 Capturing 1.000-second Red image...
2024-02-20T13:28:58 Received image 7 out of 10.

so it looks like the format statement is not completely respected.

I'm at a bit of a loss as to where I should be looking to fix things so location and format are followed

I should add that this is using remote simulator devices
