Easy to replicate:
Build 11508
Mods:
- Dark Days Ahead
- Disable NPC Needs
- Bionic Professions
- No Rail Stations
- No Fungal Monsters
- SpeedyDex
- Stats Through Kills
- Stats Through Skills
- Create a test world
- Spawn any item that has “multiples” under ( ) in front of the name (Ammo, some foods, some drugs, cotton sheet and other spare parts that work the same way)
- place them on the floor anywhere and open the “/” menu.
- use “m” to move an amount of them from one space to another, don’t move all of them.
The end result:
- if you have 10 aspirin and "m"ove 5 of them, you will notice that you will have created 5 extra aspirin and still have the original 10 in its original spot.
EDIT: added the required info which should’ve been added first.
Also to make clear that it doesn’t work if you do it from [i] to [floor]. It works whether you do it from [floor] to [floor] or from any cupboard/locker/vehicle cargo space to another one.

Can not verify.
Tested in experimental build 0.E-b11501.
Please **always** add the necessary informations to bug reports:
- Version you’re playing on (don’t just state “latest”, as this changes fast).
- Mods you have running in that world.

Oops. Updated with the required info. Sorry about that.

Confirmed.
Just tried it in experimental build b11511 and it’s still an issue.
A quick look through the recently merged pull requests turns up this one, which might be the reason for this (but I could be wrong, too):

Well, I guess I’ve hit it spot on, in that case 😆 …

Well, I’m glad that was found quickly. A bug report was just made, regardless 🙂
