Duplicate map duplicates all the details... twice

Seriously, yet again I have no idea what the hell is going on. I have a perfectly normal map, indoors type, I duplicate the map only to find out that all the details are copied twice. I checked: the original map's details aren't duplicated. And it's ONLY with this map: duplicating other maps works fine.

I tried relogging completely, as for some reason people tend to advise doing this, but it's still the same.

EDIT: Actually, I found out not not all the details are copied twice. Just most of them, while some of them are untouched by this "miracle". Now it doesn't make any sense even more.

    What is the short code for your quest so I can fix this bug?

    Here's the code: NW-DBR3EWP8C

    It's the "Loneroad Village Inn" map. When I duplicate this map, it happens.

    And sorry for my rage. I'm a miserable person listening to miserable emotions...

    Also, an interesting thing is, that while duplicating the original "Loneroad Village Inn" it duplicates most of the details twice, but when duplicating the copy of said map, "Loneroad Village Inn Morning", it duplicates only half of the details! Maybe this will also help you get a clearer sight on how to fix the problem.

    I encountered this as well a while back.

    Try duplicating your duplicate map, you'll end up with like 20 of everything.

    No, I ended up with half of everything actually.

    Even more bizarre. I was doing a map that I no longer have mostly as an experiment map.

    I duplicated it once, ended up with like 2-4 copies of everything, and on the second duplication, ended up with at least a dozen or two of everything.

    I opted not to duplicate a 3rd time.

    Oh, but I forgot to mention that after cleaning the mess, the duplicates that is, and then duplicating that map it ended up with only half of the details.

    Thanks for both of your help. Now that I have a example case, it should be pretty easy to track this down.

    savespycrabs1234, do you remember how you created the "Morning" version of the Inn? The editing data has gotten very screwed up with components on the Morning version of the map thinking they are in the room on the normal version of that map. I want to get to the bottom of what is causing this badness.

    Normally, by duplicating the original. I really have no idea if and what I could've done to trigger it. I know I duplicated the map, started writing dialog for an NPC, testing it a few times and it struck me after a while: hey, something's not right with this bar shelf. It's then when I realised almost everything's got duplicated. So sorry, I got nothing in my memory.

    The map I was referring to still exists afterall.

    I had removed many of the duplications way back when, but maybe its of use to you. I don't care about the map anymore, so feel free to do whatever you want with it.

    I think this bug is affecting me as well.
    I have a large map chock full of details. Over 1480 of them.
    I want to duplicate the map, so that I can start adding contacts and such. I waited until the map was done before adding anything else because I wanted to avoid the bug where duplicating the map turns everything into a contact.

    Well, when I try to duplicate, it hangs for a little bit, then informs me that I'm going to go way over my limit, and crashes on me. If it's duplicating most of my details, this doesn't surprise me.

    Is there anything that can be done to fix this? I have literally spent weeks on this map, probably a couple hundred hours. And I need to duplicate it before I can proceed with building the rest of my quest.

    The quest is "Os Diversorio", short code NW-DUXO9HKRP.

    Is anyone still working on fixing this bug?
    Because it still tries to clone a bunch of my details, tells me I'm going "critically over budget", then crashes without duplicating every time I try to duplicate my map.
