A Ghost in the Machine - Forge glitch?

Something very odd happened to one of my maps (a map I had not touched in over a month). When I was running around the map, it became immediately apparent that something was wrong. All of the cannon man on this particular map were way off, they overshot the intended landing area. It turns out that all of the cannons were doubled. I discovered this when I went to adjust them. After grabbing one of the cannons and moving it, another cannon was left behind in the original spot. When I deleted the “duplicate” cannon, the original and the ghost cannon were both deleted simultaneously.

I checked a bunch of other objects and they were all okay, only the cannons were duplicated. This is the first time I’ve seen this glitch. Can anyone explain how this happened?

Wow, that sounds really wierd… Never heard of that before.
