Spells scribed dozens of times

[Dymerius]

I'm having a problem lately (The past couple of builds) where #scribespell x scribes multiple instances of the same spell. For example, level 1 characters have each of their level 1 spells scribed numerous (50ish, in some cases) times. However, at level 70, I was noticing that the problem only existed with some spells... but now they were only scribed several (2..3ish) times.

Does anyone know why this might be happening?

Thanks,

multiple instances of the same spell listed in your spells_us.txt file is the problem.

Fixing this would require either a code change to block multiple writings of the same 'name' field, or editing your spells_us.txt file to change/ remove those extra spells. (careful with that if any are used as calls to clickie/ procs on items. You will break the item until you rest to the other spell id number.)

This is one reason I would like to see this file put into the database. It would eliminate duplicates and make creating an editor easier.

Thanks for the help. That had been driving me a little batty.
