Restoring Games Civs are shown incorrectly

Age of Empires II: DE II - Report a Bug
1

Game Version:

  • Build (101.101.33164.0 4413571)
  • Platform (Steam)

Issue:

When a multiplayer game is being restored the civs within the game lobby and on the loading screen display incorrectly for both (presumably all but I’ve only tested with 2) players.

Reproduction Steps:

  1. Play a multiplayer game.
  2. Save the game
  3. Host a restore lobby and invite the other player (check player civs)
  4. Start the game (check loading screen civs)
  5. Check the in game civs.

If Player 1 (the original host) hosts the restore

Developers probably confused player index with player number (aka color). These are different things.

To be fair, this did used to happen in the original game as well lol.
