Multiplayer Loading skips 1-2 turns

[Prof. Dr. Dr. Eimer]

Hello, whenever me and my friend play civ 5 bnw in multiplayer and try to load a savegame ( whether it's an autosave or manual save) the game skips 1-2 turns... Is there any fix to that?

[The Gerbil]

Yeah the same thing happens for me...what's that all about?

[Damsteri]

Yeah, they broke it in last patches (october / december), it worked before. It's really comical, those patches were targeted to fix the multiplayer and they broke it totally for couple of months and end result is worse that it was before the two latest patches.

Yeah, it's pretty sad.. They wanted to give us some additional content and instead they broke the game :/. Isn't there a method to install patches manually on steam?

This bug drives me insane and I'm incensed that there's no working fix for it.

The necrosis is real.

No, as far as I know there has never been any official fix for this problem. Might want to check out community mods though, maybe someone made an inofficial patch.

It seems that there is a community patch available: https://forums.civfanatics.com/resources/multiplayer-save-fix.27210/
But I did not have the time to test it yet.

I have the complete game, and haven't noticed this problem in the handful of multiplayer games I've played.
Is this problem just present with one of the two expansion packs installed?

You don't have expansions?

The bug came in a patch (my 5y old post earlier) with some other bugs (like alt+tab soundbug), it was not in the game in early years (2010-2014). I don't know if that patch was introduced to all versions of the game or only for expansions. BNW was the latest version of the game when the patch came out. It might have had some differences between versions and the bug doesn't happen on some versions. I haven't played MP after that patch in any other version than BNW, so I don't know.

The bug also depends on the game mode you use as it doesn't happen in sequential turns mode, but appear on other modes. Sequential mode is not very popular though, but I noticed missing that bug when I played an easy tempo duel game using that mode.
