  • This is the tick file causing me issues

    This is the top of the tick file that always gets marked as a dupe even though it has a replaces line

    Think they hatch it out every day even if it isn't changed

    I see that too when files are hatched that haven't changed. I don't know of a way to disable dupe checking.

    When I want those file to move anyway I edit bbbs/main/btickube.dup and remove the affected files from there and re-toss.

    You'll need to rename the .bad files in your inbound back to .tic.

    Ok, will just delete for the moment as it seems too much work. Maybe I reduced the size of the dupe file but cannot remember
