THANKS TO MISTRESS DALGATO. SHE WAS RIGHT. I WAS WRONG.
GREAT NEWS! THIS ONE WORKS A TREAT! FANTASTIC! :)
The Amazing Device. Have you ever backed up oars for a long period of time, lost several of the original, but hey that's ok! You've got the more recent ones! But then you discover a horrible secret. When you move an item, the exact same item is still in the same spot, so you move that one, and Lo and behold, another one? I recently found that my hallmark sim known as DragonFyre had 3 copies of every object in the exact same spot. Like I had loaded an oar 3 times. Only the problem was, I hadn't done that. I had loaded one oar. The problem is that at some point long ago I must have loaded the oar on top of itself multiple times SOMEHOW....??? So now how to fix it? I've got 3 copies of every item on this sim in the exact same spot. And every oar I've saved for over 3 years has this exact same problem. So I created the amazing device. All you do is enable console commands in osslenable (for region god only). Then put this script in a box and let it run. Over time the box will move all around your sim finding those duplicated items and remove them leaving just 1 original in that exact spot. So your sim still looks the same but now there is only one copy of the item in that spot instead of 2 or more... Here's the script:

The problem has existed for a long time. The reason is in how the OpenSIM server works with the cache.
ALWAYS some of the commands are not executed instantly for some reason, but after some delay the server still processes the command... But already working with the new state of the objects.
The easiest way to see it is to go around several different grids and change clothes several times everywhere. Then reload Firestorm and... you will have an orange cloud and/or a large pile of bodies and clothes on you.
When working with the terrain or reloading archives, the OpenSIM server is more careful, but... it is still not flawless!!! The fact that you have set the reload of the archive without the merge option means that before loading the server will issue a command to clean the terrain/inventory and then the loading will begin. Oops... except it does NOT wait for confirmation from the cache that all related assets are really cleaned (usually they really are) and in no way checks whether some other process is also working with assets that should be cleaned (for example, your previous avatar "frozen" somewhere around).
In fact, it was precisely because of such problems that I began trying to disable the cache on my server in general.

I had this same issue but never loaded the OAR with merge option, I cannot understand why it did all the duplications...
If it happend again I am glad to have your script to test ! MERCI CyberGlo !

I never loaded an oar with merge option on either. I'm with you on this Ankhsenaton. I have no idea how or why it happened.

I had talked about this problem but I was told so many times that it couldn't happen other than with the -merge option that I almost ended up thinking that I had dreamed it up and used this option without remembering it... I see with relief that I'm not so crazy in this sense ;-)

I think I figured out the reason. Have you ever went to load a sim and after clicking load sim, nothing happened? Then you click 'load sim' again. Finally the message this will clear everything pops up. It MAY be that thinking nothing was happening and clicking load sim multiple times b/c the pop up took a very long time to appear may be the issue. I don't know if this is correct, but it is the only possibility I can think of.

Yes maybe, I thought it could be something like that, telling myself that I should probably have left the sim and then come back to be sure if it had been loaded or not...
Anyway, loar oar is supposed to clear all objets .......

Interesting script CyberGlo, tricky but interesting. Maybe also an idea to add an object name comparison for that slim chance of 2 different items rezzed in the exact same spot (maybe when was using a rezzer or something that could happen)
Probably without saying that best only run when you indeed still got the recent Oar.
Am I seeing it correct though that the current script does an area of 255x255x255 in size and takes almost a year to do that?

it takes a few days. it does compare by both object name AND exact position. This is as identical as a fingerprint. You can't use UUID's b/c every dupe has different UUID from the original. Please also note: You can change the time to speed it up if you want. It's in the timer set value.
