Dr. Kahn Task Force train boarding choices

[chuckv3]

When running the Dr. Kahn task force recently, the "board the train" choice appears multiple times on the menu that comes up when clicking on the train door. On the first mission the choice appeared 6 times (we had 6 players, so maybe that's related?). On the next 2 (or 3?) missions it also appeared multiple times.

That will happen when one of the team members is not in the same zone.  Have everyone in the same zone and you should be fine.

Specifically, its an issue with the alignment system. Since the missions are marked as Hero, if anyone is a Rogue and are in a coop zone like Ouroboros, the game won't let the mission be set and instead tries to spawn a mission for each player.

I think it's a bug of a different nature. Showing more than 4 choices wouldn't make sense if there are only 4 possible alignments

It can if the game breaks for one member having a conflicting alignment. At which point the game can then just do so for everyone involved. Not saying it did, just that it can.

It's not trying to spawn one for each alignment, but for each team member. (Granted I have no idea why that's what the game decides to do)

Yes. If the game gets confused and tries to generate doors for more than one character, it will typically try to do that for all the characters. So say you're on a team of 8 with all 4 alignments equally represented. You wouldn't get 4 door choices, you would get 8 because the game has its version of a mental breakdown.
