Re: same shipsets for 2 opponents in game
It won't mess up turn processing, but it will be a real pain to tell the ships apart... I think if they have ships in the same sector there will be 2 identical flags, but you'll need to check each ship individually to see who it belongs to 
Hopefully they will declare war on each other and one will wipe the other out

Or, you could force one to surrender to the other, and have fun destroying a double-wide empire.

Merging empires is one of the worst ways to ruin a PBW game.

Re: same shipsets for 2 opponents in game
Just have one of the players pick a new set, swap out the new images for the empire and forward a zip copy to everyone. Problem solved.

Won't work, game is already started. The two players didn't select any specific shipsets, so the computer apparently selected the same stand-in shipset for both.

Re: same shipsets for 2 opponents in game
I wonder if it's possible to have a 20-player game and have every empire use the same ship set? Now that would be really confusing.

It is possible. Don't give Geo or Tesco any bad ideas!
