[r196] Setting sprite from JSON ignores sprite blend mode

Problem Description

When saving and setting a sprite's state from JSON, blend mode isn't saved/loaded.

NOTE: This isn't something that broke recently, it was happening as far back as I've tested (r192 and before)

Description of Capx

Press keyboard buttons to save and load sprite state, and set blend mode.

Steps to Reproduce Bug

• Step 1: Press '1' to save sprite state
• Step 2: Press '4' to set the blend mode to additive
• Step 3: Press '2' to load sprite state. The blend mode should switch back to normal, but doesn't.

Affected Browsers

• Chrome: (YES)
• FireFox: (YES)
• Internet Explorer: (YES)

Operating System and Service Pack

Win 8.1 64bit

I had observed this previously as well, but in a complex project - couldn't replicate in a separate small capx. Glad to see you managed.

I'd like to bump this - it's been a few months and it's still effecting my project.

Well, the first mistake is that SaveState is a number, so you can't store JSON strings in it

After fixing that I did notice that it always reverts the blend mode to normal (a slightly different issue to what you describe). I've fixed this for the next beta.

Thanks Ashley!
