Custom ship sets

[JurijD]

1. Hey, when creating a new game... how do you get the other peoples ship sets when u set the game first up as game host.

I mean I've got a new game where many people have chosen custom ship sets. And I downloaded their empire files now but those don't contain their ship sets...

If I put one player on the empire list he gets flag A and when I remove him/her and put him on a second time he/she gets another flag! That can't be right..

Am I supposed to download all their empire sets before creating a game? Are the other players supposed to do the same? Because otherwise how are we supposed to see their ships correctly? Or is all of this included in the first game file?

any help would be welcome.

2. I noticed that for one player (who doesn't have a special ship set) every time I put him on he gets a different flag... this doesn't apply to the other 3 player that also didn't choose a special ship set...if I put them on and off and on again their flags remain the same. This seems very strange to me. Is it possible that he somehow didn't choose his empire flag???
