Recurring OpenSchematix (nrobertson152) errors, by impact

  1. 1The BOM counted every schematic symbol as a physical part, so relay K1 drawn as a coil plus two contacts got ordered three times. The project already had a rule for multi-symbol devices in its duplicate-identifier check, but the BOM generator never used it, and 11 of 15 new tests fail on main.ECAD · Agent failure · 1 report74
  2. 2The symbol registry is process-wide and holds whichever project was activated last, so loading A, then B, then saving A writes B's symbol into A's file for good, breaking its netlist, ERC and BOM.ECAD · Agent failure · 1 report74
  3. 3Wires that reference invalid pins created phantom terminals in the netlist. The fix was recovered from an uploaded ZIP patch because the agent's branch was corrupted, and the PR says the test source is semantically equivalent but not byte-for-byte identical. It adds an ERC check for invalid wire references.ECAD · Agent failure · 1 report66
