In the case              I've updated my test system here to 2021/11/24, but haven't had a lot of time       to do much testing...               g0> of the 'conflicted' filenaming, there is nothing in Mystic that does any        g0> sort of 'conflicted' file renaming so is coming from your OS or other        g0> software via editors or during replication, etc. To make sure my brain              Usually, what I'll do, is have a terminal window, or two, open and running       mystic -l. These are usually open while I'm working on an MPL, but they would       not be actively running them.              I'll then have Geany open on the other monitor, with the MPS file. I have a       hotkey set up in Geany to run MPLC on that MPS file.              Then I'll run the MPL from one of the terminal windows for testing.               g0> isn't completely spacing out I searched the source code for the word        g0> 'conflict' but the only mention of it is the 'File Conflicts' setting        g0> for BINKP servers.              Thank you for checking. :)               g0> Can you provide more specifics about which files are being renamed to        g0> filename[conflicted].ext? If you are trying to edit MPL while              I have deleted a lot of the conflicted files, but here is a list of ones still       on my test system:       history [conflicted].dat       mystic [conflicted].dat       mystic [conflicted 2].dat       mystic [conflicted 3].dat       mystic [conflicted 4].dat       nodeinfo (conflicted).now       nodeinfo (conflicted 1).now       nodeinfo (conflicted 2).now       nodeinfo [conflicted 2].now       nodeinfo [conflicted].now       rcslogin [conflicted 7].mpx       users [conflicted 6].dat       winter [conflicted].mps       winter [conflicted].mpx              I have had some of the .log files show the 'conflicted' as well.               g0> running/compiling it, maybe the OS is doing it or the editor you are        g0> using to edit the source file is doing it when it is not able to save?              I do have Geany set up to auto-save every 5 minutes, but I'll save before I       compile it. Also, I'm not sure why there would be any issues with the       mystic.dat, or even nodeinfo.now files, as I don't mess with those files at       all.              I have to head into work now, but have tomorrow off. I'll see if I can do some       investigating, and run some tests with the new pre-alpha as well.              Thank you for taking a look at this. It's not a major problem. It's more of an       inconvenience. :)                     ---              Black Panther(RCS)       aka Dan Richter       Castle Rock BBS       telnet://bbs.castlerockbbs.com       http://www.castlerockbbs.com       http://github.com/DRPanther       The sparrows are flying again...              ...
