I encountered this problem during simultaneous turns. I'm fixing it programmatically, albeit in a rather crude way. It can also be fixed manually.
If anyone needs this bug fixed in an important, decisive game, feel free to contact me. You'll need to send me the save file. My ICQ is 343-425-087

you would describe what causes this bug.
I haven't encountered this in all these years, except when I tried to access the save file of two heroes. Then, the duplication occurred because the hero's structure was violated – in the save file, his position was intricately recorded.
Here, I suspect two possibilities: 1. Due to bugs in the game engine. 2. Due to someone tampering with the game's memory while playing online.

The game itself has nothing to do with it. This bug has been around since the release of "The Restoration of Erathia"... I haven't encountered it myself.
Nothing like that! This bug occurs in SOD and even in single-player games against AI.
It happened to me more than once. The last time was in March, in a game with scorp. I made a save, but I can't find it... Of course, there's no question of accessing memory or anything like that during the game.

I couldn't finish a normal game with Loi twice because of this. Now, a game with Vigo is "stuck"... I was playing in Shades of Darkness.

Darty and vbn, let's not quote Vic :) Have you ever encountered this yourselves?
Besides the case when you save during your opponent's turn? Saving during your opponent's turn can cause a duplication, but only in the save file, not in the game itself!!! Because the position of each hero is recorded in at least two places in the save file.
I haven't yet figured out the cause of the bug. As correctly noted, this is an old bug from the original game. I only know the method to fix it. By the way, I myself encountered this bug only once a long time ago. And I have a hypothesis that this bug appears when using the "space" button in the castle to exchange heroes. I don't use this button myself, which is probably why I don't encounter this bug.
When the 10K dollar tournament was being discussed, someone claimed that TE is full of bugs:) When asked what those bugs were and what they consisted of, the same person replied something like: "Of course! Dimension Door in water magic! Town Portal in fire!! Nothing but bugs!!!" :D My point is... some people just need an excuse to start complaining about TE.:)

I used to play Blade on fixes for a very long time, and then SoD 3.0. This bug happened to me plenty of times (in games against AI). So linking this bug to TE is complete nonsense.

I don't know if this is relevant, but I've encountered a similar bug. Place a hero near a Castle. Restart the game. And you end up with two identical heroes, although you can't control the second one.

I can confirm that this glitch occurs with the following sequence: 1. When you enter a Castle with a hero and the game disconnects (70-80% of the time), the heroes duplicate:smile30: 2. The whole thing is that this kind of duplication happens due to desynchronization of this specific instance of the hero entering the Castle (most often in single-player or in a "hot seat" game)... 3. In the case of changing the graphical image. That is, switching from a large view of the map to a larger view of the Castle, and at the same time, the factor of the game's duration...
I haven't encountered this, but WBN says he had it even with computers. I was also told about a game with bots.
Have you really figured out the save structure so well that you can make such statements?
The structure is quite simple - it's object-based. There's a hero object, its parameters, including coordinates. There's a castle object, which includes whether there's a hero there. There's a map in the save file, where the positions of the heroes should also be indicated.

I don't use the space key in such cases; I've encountered the hero duplication bug about 3-4 times out of approximately 200 online games on SoD. So, the hypothesis is questionable.

What does the spacebar do? Sorry for the silly question.
I have encountered duplications repeatedly.
