In codex for get_categories orderby term_group is cited with any advice, but in codex for get_terms is said "not fully implemented (avoid using)" so isn't only your problem... sorry for your time loose, I remember I've used it with no problems...

@G.M. You're right, it is saved in the database, juts not showing up in searches as it's a column - my mistake. It's showing all the correct values there too. Displaying my terms are still going through alphabetically though: get_terms('protax', array('hide_empty' => 0, 'order_by' => 'term_group', 'order' => 'ASC')); with ASC, DESC, and when I remove order entirely. It is including term_group with each category though so I have access to it.

$wpdb->update($wpdb->terms, array('term_group' => $cat_meta['order']), array('term_id'=>$term_id)); you need a WHERE clause and $cat_meta['order'] not all the $cat_meta array

Something along these lines, in my save function: $wpdb->update($prefix.'terms', array('term_group' => $cat_meta)); ?

:/ I'm not sure I follow. When or where do I set term_group?

get_categories as an option to order by term_group. Term group is a field in wp_terms table that AFAIK is not used by WordPress. So you can use the extra field to set the term_group and then use 'orderby' => 'term_group' in $args array for get_categories.
