Multi torrent/tracker files being moved mid-seed

I've got some files that I'm seeding on more than one tracker currently, with slight variations (usually an nfo file or such).

For some reason when seeding both at the same time the client decides to move all the files one directory further in.

Eg.

First torrent

I:\Torrent

Second torrent (same file/folder names plus slight change in one, meaning it requires a whole new folder)

So I put it at

I:\Torrent\Torrent

The first torrent notices another folder with the same name inside where it's already looking and takes it upon itself to move everything up one folder.

So instead I get

I:\Torrent\Torrent

and

I:\Torrent\Torrent\Torrent

But weirdly it doesn't actually update the location so as soon as it tries to do any actual uploading it's looking in the wrong spot (still searching I:\Torrent) and closes.

Also noticed that when moving files in this manner it moves all files not just the ones in the torrent.

In my case for example i had a set of rar's that was in the torrent, and an extracted version right beside. Both got moved up a folder.

It would appear to me that this ties into the force-recheck problem I was having earlier where it was looking in the wrong folder and could never actually find the files after setting download location.
