Language-depending games: language option was automaticly reset to English

Post by Thomas »

I created a game table for a language-depending game and changed the language option to German, before I opened the table and waited for other players to join.

When a 3rd player joined my table, the language option was automatically changed/reset to English and I was not able to switch back to German, because at least one player at this table does not speak German.

I consider this a bug.

Suggestion: Players, that do not speak the language, that the creator of the table has set, should not be able to join the table (not not manually and not using automatic match making nor any other way). It should not be possible for others to change the language of the game table (at least as long as the original creator has not left the table).

I created a bug report: #130542: "language option was reset to English automaticly while waiting for more players"

This is certainly a bug. Players shouldn't (and previously weren't) able to join a table, if their profile doesn't match the language setting. Regularly, only the creator of the table can change game settings, and as far as I know they can only change them if no other person is present at the table.
