Summary

0005113: Readable materials (books, slabs) duplicating in inventory

Description

After picking up a slab and a book, both of which contained the secrets of life and death, I noticed quite soon that my speed was dropping every time I entered a new site. Upon looking at my inventory, I had a dozen copies of the slab in one hand and the book in the other. If I dropped the original one in my backpack, the ones in my hands would disappear and return my speed to normal, but if I picked it up again they would restart the duplication. If I restart the game without saving and pick them up again where I got them (see below), the same thing happens each time, so it's probably either completely reproducible or related to how I got them.

Steps To Reproduce

With another adventurer I went to a necromancer's tower for the first time, and abused sneaking while looking for the secrets of life and death. I found both a book and a slab that had them, and after slaughtering the tower I left for the nearest town. I'm not sure if the bug was occurring then, because I went straight for the town. After spending the night resting as not to get attacked by monsters, I woke up on the roof, because of the sleeping bug in 0005047, and tried to jump off to get down. Unsurprisingly I died, but since I knew where it was I went back with another adventurer to the town and found the body and the items, and that's where I would pick it up each time I tried reproducing it.

Additional Information

I haven't tried dropping the items from my hands instead of my backpack, so I'm not sure what that might do. None of my other items were replicating.
