Help with strange bug in my code!

[Tragic]

Hi there... am I totally stuck on an error I have with my code and I can not for the life of me work out how to fix it. I have tried rebuilding the entire tool 4 times.. each with a different method and nothing works.. I think I have tracked down the problem.. but as far as I know.. it shouldn't be a problem so I have no idea how to fix it.

The Situation

• I have a bag of 27 card, each named.
• I loop through the bag, and add to a table data form the cards found inside the bag. The GUID goes in as the key and the NAME goes in as the value

The Problem

This makes a a table of 26....

    for k, v in ipairs(getBag('player').getObjects()) do
        bag_Deck[v.guid] = '???'
    end

The resulting table is ALWAYS 26 instead of 27 in length.

    local bag_Deck = {}
    for k, v in ipairs(getBag('player').getObjects()) do
        table.insert(bag_Deck, v.guid)
    end

The resulting table is ALWAYS 27 in length.

I am getting length by....

function varLength(v)
    local count = 0
    for k, v in pairs(v) do
        count = count + 1
    end
    return count
end
print(varLength(bag_Deck))

The bag itself has 27 items in it.

Apparently one of the card GUIDs in the bag is a duplicate. Try

for k, v in ipairs(getBag('player').getObjects()) do
    if not bag_Deck[v.guid] then
        bag_Deck[v.guid] = '???'
    else
        print('!!! DUPLICATE: ' .. v.guid)
    end
end

That's why (as I said the 8946th time) I avoid GUIDs like fire whenever possible. You can do without them, really, pretty much could be used just for onSave/onLoad and simple getObjectFromGUIDs for initialization. They can screw you over hard and there are *numerous* bugs with GUIDs especially when spawning/cloning shit.
