First actions are missing from In-Game Replay
Posted: 01 August 2021, 09:25
Hi. I encounter a situation where the first actions are missing from the in-game replay mode. This can leads to missing information for turn based game mode.
It's related to a bug report on splendor's module : https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=43474.
Despite It looked like to work fine initially, I would says finally it's reproductible 50% (or 1/$nb_players % ;p).
What happens :
- the very first notifications are missing from the replay
How to reproduce it :
Starts a game in 2 players, it's important (don't know why) to remember who is table creator / admin.
The first player performs it's first action which adds some simple message in the gamelog through NotifyAllPlayers() API
The first player actions is listed in the second player gamelog (expected behavior)
When the second player requests a replay from the very first move (through Replay From This Move button in the game logs, linked to url like https://studio.boardgamearena.com/1/abo ... er=2310418), then the first move is missing from the gamelog.
Unfortunately (or not), I was able to reproduce this issue each time the first player is the table creator/admin.
When the second player to join the table is the starting player, it works fine...
I was able to produce a dedicated project from scratch which reproduces this issues (100% success based on luck of starting player).

There is really not big change from the template projects : add some empty actions and minimal statemachine and run the game.
