Duplicate protoflux groups maintain connections to original copies

[code807]

Describe the bug?

When duplicating selected groups of ProtoFlux nodes, the duplicates maintain connections to the original ProtoFlux.

To Reproduce

• Create and select any multi-node ProtoFlux group
• Duplicate the selection

Expected behavior

The duplicate nodes should have connections between each other rather than connections to their originals.

I don't think that issue is related at all. I'm pretty sure this issue happens because when you grab multiple items and duplicate them each one is duplicated individually, rather than all at once

Agreed- #907 is a separate issue.

I don't think this is a bug, however. There are situations in which it makes sense for a duplicated node to point to its original connections- you are duplicating the nodes exactly as they are.

It is already possible to duplicate ProtoFlux in the way you are asking- you would just have to have it packed into a slot, and duplicate that slot instead.

This may be something that would fall under #599 which would unify selection systems in Resonite, and improve multi-select functionality.

I would definitely consider this a bug. You're holding a group of objects with internal references. Duplicating them should properly re-assign the references in the same way references within duplicated hierarchies are reassigned everywhere else in Resonite.

It is also currently impossible to hold a group of ProtoFlux and bring it with you into a different world by focusing there without the node connections breaking, I assume for the same underlying issue this ticket is describing.
