Multiple races with the same flag

[Dweeb]

I am in a multiplayer game in which another player myself have chosen the same flag. It would not be such a problem if the info screens did not identify races solely by the flag. Is there a way around this problem or am I missing something?

As far as I know the only way around it is to restart the game and make sure nobody has the same race style. Which really isn't a way around it at all. Live with it or restart.

I assume you're using different race styles, and it's just that the "Main.bmp" is the same in both styles. In that case, have you tried editing one of the flag pictures? I assume the game calls the picture each time it gets drawn, so in theory this would solve the problem.

If you're both using the same race style, you could be out of luck. I'm surprised the game allowed it...
