Arcade glitch with joining mid-match #2505

Open MarcRoizman opened 8 years ago

MarcRoizman commented 8 years ago

On the arcade just now, it moved the 4 of us who were on an arcade server onto another arcade server that already had 4 people playing Wool Story Bro. When it moved me to the new server and forced me into the game automatically, it assigned me the same color as someone already playing, which made the game confusing.

There is only a certain amount of colors, so I'm not sure if there is even a solution for this.

It's assigning duplicate colors in a match with <8 people though.

What map was this on? Possibly there aren't enough teams and size is not set (if possible?) or it is ignoring the size.

There seems to be no team declaration in the map.xml so it must be a problem with dynamic teams (if that's how teams are handled).

The match probably had over 10 unique past players, and some colors were used by players who had left the game. There isn't a simple solution to this, but we might be able to prioritize colors of offline players when they start repeating.
