Subfolder child duplication in the Statblock Manager UI when dropdown is opened

closed
· Statblocks management ·
By Gurlu on 11/12/2025

I have multiple statblocks, all ordered in subfolders, themselves having subfolders.
When opening specific subfolders (detailed below), they dropdown open as expected. However, the first element is duplicated and appears twice : when they're opened or closed, both arrows animate to signify they're being open at the same time.

Most of these are empty subfolders for now, but it has been shown to work with ones that aren't empty ; in this case, the entire content of the subfolder is duplicated in he UI as well. Once open, the folders cannot be interacted with anymore, regardless of if they've been closed or open. Their content is still interactible and lead to the same expected item management window.   More importantly, when the parent subfolder gets closed again, the dropdown closes, except for the duplicate, staying out and visible. Spamming the dropdown to open and close it will generate even more duplicates.

  Worse, it's contagious : under specific circumstances, the bugged subfolders will duplicate on their own.
This happens when a bugged subfolder is duplicating ; all the duplicated subfolders hidden down under in the scrollable sidebar will duplicate as well.

This doesn't seem to be consistent however, the only way I managed to make it happen was to open a bugged subfolder down the sidebar, scroll up untill I can't see it, then another visible bugged subfolder. When I scrolled back down, the other subfolder was duplicated even more.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open the statblock management sidebar
  2. Navigate to the bugged subfolder by opening the corresponding dropdowns (see above)
  3. Open the subfolder : the first child is already duplicated when opening. It cannot be interacted with twice.
  4. Close the subfolder : the first child stays in the list and doesn't disappear.
  5. Repeat step 3 and 4, the child keeps duplicating over and over.
  When it comes to duplicating different subfolders at once :
  1. Open the statblock management sidebar
  2. Navigate to a bugged subfolder down the sidebar by scrolling down
  3. Open the subfolder : the first child is already duplicated when opening.
  4. Close the subfolder : the first child stays in the list and doesn't disappear.
  5. Repeat step 3 and 4, the child keeps duplicating over and over.
  6. Scroll back up to another bugged subfolder, making sure the previous one is hidden in the scrollable element.
  7. Open and close the bugged subfolder to duplicate its first child multiple times
  8. Scroll back down to the previous bugged subfolder : its child has been duplicated even more, along the current duplicated child.

This bug is consistent with specific subfolders. I made a tree of folders with each root ending up in a similar structure, 3 subfolders : Shaping, Speech and Wild. For now, each of these folders are completely empty and lead to no statblock ; the goal being to fill them later.   Here are the subfolders that I found in my tree that trigger the bug :
  • Cards/Verbs
  • Idioms/Essence/Essence
  • Idioms/Essence/Fracture
  • Idioms/Flux
  • Idioms/Matter/Compound/Steam
  • Idioms/Matter/Compound/Substance
  • Idioms/Matter/Deepened/Lightning
  • Idioms/Matter/Elemental/Water
  • Idioms/Matter/Matter
  • Idioms/Mind/Chaos
  • Idioms/Mind/Will

  I can't seem to find a consistent parameter between those folders.

I tried moving a statblock from a corrupted folder into a newly made one. The folder interface freezes when I do so.
When I reload the page, the corrupted folder is now duplicated three times instead of two, and opening the previously made folder will instead open this third duplicate, the moved statblock inside.   I'm really confused on what is exactly happening, but I'm wondering if this is because statblock folders ended up corrupted in some way.
In any case, this completely freezes my progression when it comes to this project and I can't work on it anymore until this is fixed, so any help would be welcome.

I forgot to set my world to public before, this should be done now.

I found where the bug came from !
  When I tried to delete the corrupted folder, it was deleted as expected, but the bug remained when I made it again.
When I tried to rename it however, the bug stopped ! It wasn't duplicated anymore when I reloaded the page.

However, different folders than before got corrupted and did the UI duplication glitch. I tried renaming more and after a few more, the bug completely disappeared.
My guess is that this bug is related to subfolders having similar names. I had around 30 folders with the same name, and when I lowered it down to around 25, the bug completely disappeared and corrupted folders where no more.

I renamed the subfolders as a temporary fix, but I'm pretty sure someone else might stumble on this bug eventually still.
