Part assets duplicating and filling RAM in VAB/SPH

[gajbooks]

So, I figured that since BDArmory has a RAM leak, that I'd try looking at it (mostly just for my own learning experience) and see if I could fix it. After listing all the objects and assets in Unity when the leak is happening, I figured out that the parts are duplicating themselves (both textures and models) when viewed as an icon in the VAB. This only happens with BDArmory parts, not stock. Nothing in the BDArmory source has anything to do with part icons. I've looked around to see what could be causing it, but at this point I legitimately have no idea. I have no experience with the internal workings of KSP and I don't know what sort of issue would cause part assets to duplicate.

Hum. From what I understand you know a bit about unity but not about KSP ?

The model duplication is the strange thing. Texture/Materials could come from the part highlighter.

What do you see exactly ? Duplicate Mesh, Texture, GameObject ? Do you tried to log the object name and/or hierarchy ?

I logged the object names and that is what let me discover that it's the textures and models duplicating.

Here are just a few lines that are around the base Browning machine gun part. There are duplicates of every line but I omitted them for space reasons. All BDArmory parts are duplicated in this manner, as far as I could tell.

Some lines that are exclusive to missile weapons
