Caps_Lock acting as 2 different keys

I had this working until yesterday and now, out of nowhere, it no longer works. What the fuck. So here is what I want:

- Disable Caps_Lock and have it act as a different key (for example, F13). This is so I can use the Caps_Lock physical key as a shortcut for stuff I need.

The below worked until recently:

 xmodmap -e "keycode 66 = F13" 

Now, however, after doing that. Caps_Lock is BOTH F13 and Capslock. As in, xev shows that clicking on the capslock physical key, the return is F13. However, after pressing Caps_Lock, it always toggles the Caps_Lock thingie: my characters become capitalized.

So, what the fuck is going on and why is it not working all of a sudden? I only had it working for a day or so, so I am starting to wonder: "Did it ever work?!"
