Summary

For some rather unholy reason, I have managed to do the impossible and have weapon types appear in the equip category, and I have no idea what's causing it! I use plugins, but the only one I can think of that directly affects equipping is YEP's Equipcore, which I tried disabling but that didn't fix the issue.

I use plugins, but the only one I can think of that directly affects equipping is YEP's Equipcore, which I tried disabling but that didn't fix the issue.

Even weirder, when I give my character the ability to equip a weapon, the greyed-out type becomes selectable (And the more types I add, they will appear in equip)? The screenshots I provided are with Equipcore enabled. And to my knowledge, this fortunately only affects weapons.

What I think is happening is that during one of my sleepless runs, I might've messed around with a plugin, don't remember, and didn't notice the issue until it was too late. But it could also be something as simple as me messing around with the database and not realizing it. Regardless, some help would be very much appreciated, thank you! Apologies for such an oddly specific problem lol
