Hello and Loading Multiplayer faild after update

Hello, heroes,


I discovered 0AD at the end of last year when I was looking for an open source game for my children. They kept coming up with requests like ‘Minecraft’ and some dubious gaming platforms where you can play what feels like 2 billion games. Tips from school friends.  Personally, I can't get into Minecraft, and I don't really think kindergarten browser games with endless trackers are suitable either. Since I've been using Linux exclusively for 20 years, I can't even get the ancient CD games from the past out of the attic to show the kids some ‘proper’ games :-)

And then I found your game, tried it out a few times and had fun like in the old days. In the spring, I installed it for my boys and the three of us played together against the AI on our local area network. I set up a server and they were able to connect. Man, did they have fun. ‘Forget Minecraft,’ they said to me. And now they're constantly asking me when we can play together again. :-D
I know the game is still in alpha. But we're already having a lot of fun. 

However, since the 27.1 update, we have had a problem: we can no longer save and load multiplayer games. When we start a new game, save it and want to reopen it later, a completely different game opens. I'm not sure if there is a clear structure here, I only had two games: my test game and the multiplayer game. And somehow, my test game always opened. I've already completely deleted and reinstalled the program, but it doesn't seem to work. 

I've already tried rebuilding the old version 27.0 or downloading it from GitHub, but that didn't help either. Maybe something changed in the OS during an update, so that something is going wrong?

Are you aware of this? Is there perhaps already a solution for this?

Here are our first technical specifications:

  • Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon + 21.3 Cinnamon
  • tried starting server, save and load games on both systems

Anything else needed?

Best regards and thank you for this great work.
Marc
