[0.18.6] editor : entity tag gets removed if another entity has the same tag

Post by DanGio »

I found out that in editor you can't set the same entity tag on 2 different entities. If you do so, the older one gets removed without notification.

How to reproduce :
- in /editor, place 2 entities of any kind which support entity tag input,
- type anything in entity 1 "entity tag" field
- copy paste the entity tag into the entity 2 tag field

>>> entity 1 tag gets removed.

I understand the "Entity tag" field feature as : "type anything here, it will display on the entity", that's why I'm reporting this as a bug.

Thanks for the report however that's working as intended. The current tags system works exactly like that; one tag to one entity and if you set it on another then the first is removed.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
