Ashley I'm not sure it's a bug or not, but if i preview locally drag drop behavior works normally. But in arcade version drag drop works outside (diagonal) parts of the magnifying glass.
You can use a system like that.
Update: I added some waits. I don't observe a problem right now. Probably GET function trying to read values before JSON is updated.

I think you find a bug. JSON Data is not updated after some removes. Actually it look like updated but JSON.Get function sometimes return null values.
