Finally figured out why my tent kept getting damp inside after 3 trips

I spent the better part of two mornings trying to seal what I thought was a leak at the seams, but it turns out my groundsheet was trapping moisture underneath. Once I swapped to a breathable footprint and let the tent air out before packing, the problem vanished. Has anyone else spent way too long troubleshooting what ended up being a simple fix?

What finally made you realize you were doing it? Like was it a specific moment or did someone have to point it out to you?
