Bug: ActionList Editor is almost blank, won't close (helllp!)

Arhoolie

On some of my larger scripts, the Editor has started showing up almost blank and unusable. I can't close the AL editor unless I can load a smaller script, which shows up normally.  I think this may be the a result of duplicating a script; I got it before under similar circumstances, and could only get rid of it by reverting.  I'd rather not revert this time - got some ways along before the bug happened.

I think I've kind of figured this out:  If you duplicate a script, it seems to become an instance, not a copy, of the original script.  If you change an entry in one script, it changes it in the other.  This is, in a word, crazymaking, until you eventually realize what's going on. 

But then, if you delete a portion of one script, one or the other scripts will freak out due to some precedent disappearing or something, and exhibit the behavior above.  

The workaround is to just copy/paste the code from *within* the ActionLists, but until you know this, it's a baffler.

Which script did you copy?  Do you mean you duplicated the ActionList asset / gameobject, or literally a script file?

There was an issue with duplicating ActionLists a good while ago, but I thought it long-since fixed.  Which version of AC are you working with?

Turns out we're at 1.46.  I'm told that elements of our project is incompatible with later updates, so we'll work around the issue.
