Duplicates #21

Closed scargill closed 6 years ago

If you are in node-red - and you replicate a device by copy-paste-rename - sometimes you get a message underneath to indicate address already in use.

There's an easy way around it - don't copy-paste nodes - but as this usually works with nodes it would be nice if this could be fixed.

(other than that, this node works a treat)

I've experienced this myself too with v.3.2

My Alexa node relies on Node ID (eg. "409174b1.1d019c") to uniquely assign an unused port to it. In general, when a node is copied/cloned, NodeRED suppose to give the new Node a new ID, which is fine for my port-assigning logic.

This error occurs when the copied node does not have an new NodeID. Which I really don't know how to fix.
