Another observation when using Xmage to test decks for MTGO.

The computer equips artifacts that buff creatures (e.g. +1/+1) well - e.g. one time only as it should but with Shining Armor (Throne of Eldraine) the computer AI will try and equip the artifact multiple times to a creature rather than just once - this is later in game when the computer has fewer cards to play and a lot of mana resources.

See the above picture / screenshot - AI tries to equip the artifact / equipment twice to the same target creature.

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named. Reproduce the Shining Armor scenario from the screenshots and compare the AI's repeated equip attempts with the card's one-time expected behavior; done means the AI no longer attempts the same invalid equip repeatedly.
