Character sheet attacks (5e) duplicates on import and reload

Recently I've had a strange bug. When exporting my character to a game room, some times the list of attacks are duplicated. Some times I think they appear when I have to reload the room due to connection problems. For characters with a handful of spell attacks, that list can become quite long after a couple of duplicating instances... This has happened for a couple of months, but only occasionally, not regularly enough to reproduce when I have tried on purpose.

Hi Simira. I'm getting the same thing with some of my character sheets as well as other players characters sheets. Seems to happen randomly.  We're not importing any character sheets.  Just starting a game from where we left off and we see all our attacks/spells are tripled or quadrupled in some instances.  We're using D&D 5E by Roll20 character sheet.  I'm at a loss as to what could be causing the duplication.  This just started happening about 2 weeks ago.

It happened again. I think it is connected to my spells also being changed to Spellcards instead of attacks. When I change them back to attack and cast/click them, they duplicate on the list.

We have a community server with dozens of sheets and this duplication commonly happens on various sheets. It happens with weapon attacks and spell attacks frequently. Also, just today it started to duplicate my resource boxes...

I had this exact thing happen today. It was happening when a player was leveling up their character using the charactermancer, so I completely remade their character sheet on my own, faithfully recreating what they had chosen for their character up to their current level. It worked perfectly. And then, as soon as I gave them control and made it available in their journal, the attacks and spellcasting list duplicated itself right in front of me.

Are any of the people experiencing these problems running any extensions that alter the behavior of Roll20? Including the GMs and creators of such games?

I use Stylus (mostly using styles created by you, WHICH ARE AWESOME, so thanks for that) as well as VTT Enhancement Suite.  My players do not use any of these extensions. I'm also an API junkie as you can see by the API screen grab shared below.

Stylus is pretty safe, since it doesn't really send any data to the Roll20 app, it just changes the display on your computer from data received. I'd check if the issues continue with VTTES turned off, before doing a deep dive to see what's happening.

I am not experienced enough to run extensions or edit Roll20 behaviors. Our issues are happening in a totally vanilla game. I have official 5e addons in the game in question, some custom maps. In the other active game I am running, it is Esper Genesis which doesn't have a functional chactermancer yet, so I cannot tell you if this is the same across both games.

Same here. I only recently started using API for some of my games (and it slows down so much I'll quit doing that), but this happens in any room, frmo basic to full of macros and apis.

Are anyone from Roll20 actually reading these bug reports?

I am also experiencing duplicates in that area of the character sheet. The first sheet was made with the Artificer Charactermancer. I remade my character on an entirely new sheet and still had duplicates in that section on the fresh sheet.

Well, I suppose it is a good thing that it took two years to coma across a bug that I needed it for.

has anyone found a fix or work around

The "fix" is to set all the spells to "attack" and not "spellcard", and delete all the extra attacks in the list. I have submitted the bug with no response at all.
