Replay Skirmish Doesn't Work

sann3856 6 years ago updated by Lee "Noontide" Moon (Designer & Community Manager) 6 years ago 9

When I replay a skirmish level all of the skirmish settings are lost - e.g. colour, theme, etc. In addition the AI does nothing at all. The skirmish has to be created again.

Hi Sann


Do you have the output log from a gameplay session where it occurred, or if not can you reproduce the issue and collect an output log.


This guide will help you find the log: http://brightrockgames.userecho.com/topics/118-how-to-submit-a-bug-ticket/


I expect it might give us a clue why the replay is not working.

Thanks will have a go in my next play session.

Hey sannn3856,


I've managed to replicate this so I'll accept this ticket.

Thanks for the report. Unfortunately until this is patched you will have to just remember the settings and recreate the match if you want to replay the same settings. Alternatively you can create a save game just after the match starts and then load from that as a way to restart with the same settings.


I understand that neither option is ideal, but until the next patch rolls out this is your best bet to ensure that the settings are consistent on replay.

  • Start Skirmish with custom settings (mutators and cosmetic settings)
  • Finish the game
  • Click "Replay"
  • The mutators and cosmetic settings should now have changed or be completely absent

It used to work earlier but it might have been changed due to an Unity update at some point.
However we changed it now that it does not rely on these settings surviving the level.
So this will work again in next Patch.
Thanks for letting us know it was broken! :)

Thanks greatly appreciated.
