P.S. The only observation: most of the duplications occur mainly with the blue player.
I noticed the topic and decided to write. Over 5-6 years of playing on different versions (although I only started playing seriously in the last year, before that it was just casual), the duplication happened periodically, but not often. Both on 3.57, 3.85, and Platinum 4.0, both when playing over a physical network and later through Hamachi. It happened more often with my friend, my regular partner. Recently, we played a game, and it happened to me, but I took advantage of it; the game didn't crash: the duplicate stood motionless on the road in the dungeon, while the real one (he was a Necromancer) ran around, and the troops I transferred to the duplicate ended up with the real one – no spell can compare to that. I'll rummage through my mess of save files; maybe I'll find it. Either it's a bug, or it's an undocumented execution of some condition. These are the kind of wonders that, unfortunately, cannot be controlled.

I found that file with the duplicate; I've reinstalled Windows several times,
so I don't remember "which" heroes were there, but it was definitely Platinum 4.0, and if there was a mod, it was HoMM3 HD 2.98f.
Now, before sending, I checked with the HoMM3 HD 3.14f mod, and there was no duplicate.
I loaded it without the mod, and the duplicate is there, next to Ksarfac (a hint if anyone is interested), and the real one is at the gates of Blackwater. Try to have Ksarfac take some troops from the duplicate; they will disappear from both the duplicate and the real one.
The most important thing is that it's about Alkin, the color is brown (game funk 1*1*1).
За то что нейтралы не бегают за единичкой, для меня это уже стоит того
