Vehicles duplicated
« on: January 26, 2013, 11:31:53 pm »

Hi Cameni,

i seem to be getting duplicate vehicles showing in my vehicle list. Is there somewhere I can check to see why this is happening or is it a bug. This was something ongoing but I only raised it now as I thought it would be sorted in the latest version. It used to be ok. Any ideas?

It lists objdef files from packages in both the install and data directory. Maybe you have copied them around and duplicated?

Ok, seems like when the data is installed to the same directory as install directory then you get the duplicate aircraft. For someone like me I like to have everything in the same folder.

I reinstalled separating the data and install and now I do not get duplicates.

Would there be a fix or tweak for this?

Ah yes, normally it enumerates program and data folders separately, in this case it runs twice over the same folder. Will fix.
