Not the best approach but it's working now.

This is a (at least to me) known behaviour :P

I guess I'll just apply AIs to previously non-AI being slots.

No, not working properly yet.

Summary: [PATCH] The "preserve match settings" sets player 2 unassigned after playing as player 2[PATCH] The "preserve match settings" should also save player-assignments

The fundamental problem is that the persistmatchsettings doesn't save the playerassignments (only save the playerdata, which includes AI settings and civs).

Saving playerassignments is something which would also help with rehosting, but has to be taken care of properly. Whomever changes this will have to ensure that the file not only grow but also shrinks (i.e. also delete assignments instead of only adding assignments inbetween games) and that the game doesn't break when trying to load matchsettings of an older version of 0AD.

Notice g_PlayerAssignments is saved in gamesetup.js and m_PlayerAssignments in NetServer.cpp.
