Hi all,

Wondering if I could get a hand.
I've played an MP game with a mate with me hosting and had a great time teaching him.
Saved and logged off.
Two days later went to play again, via MP with me hosting the Saved Game and now he can't see his correct CIV!
I've found the same issue on forums back in 2016/2017.

I have Utopia, Apocalypse, Plantoids, Leviathans, Synthetic Dawn, Humanoids, Distant Stars.
He has none.

No update between starting the game and restarting, all on v2.7.2 (60bf) build: da492cf

He can't see his Plant race CIV but I can. I assume it has something to do with the DLC's that he doesn't have.
Interesting thing is, if he loads in SP the game that he saved just before we quit the first session, he jumps in as the correct CIV.

In the MP Civ Select Screen, if he opens the CMD Console and hits "play 1" it tells him he is the correct empire but once selecting either OBSERVE or another empire, has no control over CIV 1, just the civ he selected.

Any Thoughts?

Cheers,
Mace

Steps to reproduce the issue.
- Tried to Second Player as Host and still can't find his Civ.
- He play as his Civ in single player with same save game, all good.
- I (initial host) can see mine and his Civ.
- I created a brand new MP game with me hosting with all same DLC's, he joined. Immediately saved and quit then I re-hosted and he still couldn't see his CIV.

Same thing happened to me, we've got pretty much the same situation. I have all the DLC and none of the joining players have any. We think maybe it's because we picked random races? We test using our own races and we were able to load a game. Would love to figure out a workaround or get a fix for this it's really frustrating! Also ignore my name I couldn't figure out how to change it
