Bug #46

Game Publicity Setting Ignored in CREATE GAME Panel

Status:	Open
Priority:	Medium
Added by:	liokindy on February 22, '26
Assigned to:	Unassigned
Due date:
Reported for:	SFD 1.5.0

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open "CREATE GAME", "GAME TYPE" is set to "Public"
2. Manually change it
3. Creating the lobby and/or starting the game don't matter
4. Exit the game
5. Open "CREATE GAME" again, "GAME TYPE" will always be set to "Public"

Explanation

Game publicity seems to be fixed to "Public"

Inside the game's config.ini file, the setting HOST_GAME_PUBLICITY seems to be ignored as opening the "CREATE GAME" panel will always set the "GAME TYPE" to "Public", even if the previous game was "Private" or "Offline".

Manually changing the setting to a different value does not affect anything and the setting is re-written as 0 when closing the game.
