Filed / Tracking [01465] Single Player Difficulty Settings are broken again

Build: v 1.11.7 4480
Mode: Single Player

SERVER NAME:
SEED-ID:

If applicable:
MODIFIED PLAYFIELDS:

Reproducibility: When changing the difficulty settings for a single player scenario like 'Reforged Eden' it jumps back to 'Invader vs Defender' and sets your settings back to default when you click OK.

Severity: Annoying

Type: Single Player Custom settings is broken.

Summary: Please fix this for good.

Description:

Steps to Reproduce:
1) Choose to play a single player scenario game.
2) Customize the difficulty then click OK.

 

I can confirm. After changing difficulty level, the chosen custom scenario changes back to Invaders vs Defenders. Disabling or hiding those has no effect, even commenting out their starter playfields in the scenario's Sectors file only pushes the problem to another stock scenario (Default Akua-Omicron) that replaces the custom scenario ( and the Invaders vs Defenders).

The custom Scenario's starter playfields are there among the other scenario's playfields, but at the end of the list. Only solution I found was to set my scenario seed at zero ( 0 ) after changing difficulty level, which sets the correct custom scenario's starter playfields.

 

Steps to reproduce:

1. In a non-DLC game, go to start new game > scenarios.
2. Select Reforged Eden 2 beta from the list.
3. Change something in the difficulty options.
4. The starter planet will change to Atlon.

Here's a video:

 

Oh i have the DLC, but its not installed.
It was for a time - i deinstalled it because i wanted the much nicer blue backround back.

 

Similar thing also happens in a custom creative scenario : changing the starter playfield does not change the playfield data (temperature, gravity, etc) and does not show the corresponding preview.jpg and preview_empty.jpg images (when choosing empty playfield).
