   Nope. This is on my test system, which everything is run locally. I do have   
   network file shares, but nothing with this drive.   
      
   I do think I might have found, at least part, of the problem. I was logged into   
   Mystic, using ./mystic -l, and also logged into another node with the same user   
   name. (I had one terminal at 80x25, and one at 132x37) After noticing the issue   
   with the 'conflicted' files, I did see in the error.log that Mystic couldn't   
   write to the chat1.dat file. It looked like I still had active logins to   
   Mystic, but both the chat1.dat and chat2.dat files were missing.   
      
   This is running a slightly older pre-alpha version of Mystic, (2021/08/29) so   
   maybe I really need to update... ;) I'm wondering if it might be related to the   
   issue that someone else had with being dropped to a command prompt when running   
   locally...
