Transform behavior layers are being duplicated

I'm using the puppet "Ninja", and I applied a "transform behavior" to a layer that is in the shareable head.

Now, when I edit a replay, the transform behavior appears duplicated. And every time I save and click "edit replay" again, the layer is copied more times.

This doesn't mess up the animation itself, but it makes it very disorganized.

Does anyone know why this happens? Is there a way to fix it?

 

Here are some images showing the copied layers.

Good question. This is not very common; if you edit the 2 pre-existing replays you'll see they are much simpler (only 3 tracks each). I believe with shareables CH is still seeing these as their own layers/instances, and continuing to accomodate for all of them. I can see this with Ninja even if I just try to add one keyframe from a Transform behavior added to like the mask or something, where I will still see 5 layers and then the keyframe below. Unfortunately I think this is just the way shareables work - CH treats them as if they weren't actually shared and they're all repeated layers. I don't think anything changes if you apply your edits to the original shareable, but I might be wrong (I don't use them often!).

Yeah, I'm still going to get used using this shareables heads... But as this happens only when I edit replays, that's not gonna be a problem with the animation. Thanks for the attention!
