Hi there. I am having a bit of trouble creating new units since the patch. My problem is, for example if i want to make a custom marine. If i duplicate the marine, then rename the duplicated marine to "marine test" it will change the original marine to "marine test" as well. It is the same when i change the name of the duplicated actors/effects/guns etc. When i create a new unit and base it on the marine it will do the same.
Is this a bug or a settings problem?
Thanks

I can't recreate this mistake, duplicate and copy+paste work for me.
The name editing window from the right panel contains 2 fields: key and name.
The key determines which storage location is used for the name. If 2 texts use the same storage location, they are bound to use the same name because they read the data from the same spot.
To fix that, just alter the key of one of your Marines and enter a proper name.
