When I click align to density, it doesn't always work. Instead, it aligns and revert right away.

The reverting is because aligning is a two step process. The first step that you see runs an algorithm called PCA to to a rough estimate of the alignment. Then it runs a minimization (wiggle) that only includes the density match score in order to settle the protein into a more precise alignment. This second step is the reverting that you are seeing. I agree that this is a little confusing to look at, so I've made the game only show the end result instead of the intermediate step.
Thanks for posting this feedback. I've forwarded the issue to the team.
