The figure is supposed to move :)

The whole purpose behind the cloth room is to simulate the draping of the cloth around an object or figure so that it appears more natural.

If you are using 30 frames for the animation, you set the figure's pose at frame 15.

Then move the slider back to frame 1 and go to the cloth room.

Once you set up the cloth and run the simulation, the figure will gradually move into the pose that  you set and the cloth will follow along with the figure to simulate it having moved with the figure's movement.

The final frame of your animation shows the completed figure's pose along with the final draping of the cloth around that figure's pose.

When you save the .pz3 file and reopen it, the animation is automatically reset to 1.  But it is not deleted.  Move the animation dial all the way to the last frame in order to restore the final pose and cloth draping.
