Hi all,

I created my own action plugin, I based it of set_fact.

It works when the fact is not set already, otherwise it does not.
To be sure I did not do any mistake (cause I could not find one in my code)
I copied the whole set_fact code and called the file set_fact2.py

In the library of my ansible project the module info: library/set_fact2.py, 
and the action plugin into the
action_plugins/set_fact2.py

So my question: *Why does the copy set_fact2 not overwrite value test?* But 
original set_fact does? (again it is the same code, without any changes 
from my side)
Is there some setting for this somewhere else?

My ansible-playbook looks like
    - set_fact:
        test: 1

    - set_fact2:
        test: 2

    - debug:
        var: test

    - set_fact:
          test: 3

    - debug:
        var: test

This is what happens:

TASK [set_fact] 
> ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
> ok: [localhost] => {
>     "ansible_facts": {
>         "test": 1
>     },
>     "changed": false
> }
>
> TASK [*set_fact2*] 
> *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
> ok: [localhost] => {
>     "ansible_facts": {
>         "test": 2
>     },
>     "changed": false
> }
>
> TASK [debug] 
> ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
> ok: [localhost] => {
>     "test": 1
> }
>
> TASK [set_fact] 
> ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
> ok: [localhost] => {
>     "ansible_facts": {
>         "test": 3
>     },
>     "changed": false
> }
>
> TASK [debug] 
> ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
> ok: [localhost] => {
>     "test": 3
> }
>



Thanks for any help.

Kind Regards
Christian
