Joining existing battle - Captains are switched / randomised....anyone have a work around?

Ive seen this issue being posted, its still an ongoing issue. Does anyone have a workaround I can try? Im on PS5 so cant do mods.

You spend hours and hours developing your character, your companions and family members. You assign them as captains. Then you join a battle (aid an ally in battle, caravan attack, caravan ambush quest, etc) and the game decides to switch your Archer captain with your infantry captain. Its so infuriating.

Please note. this issue doesnt happen when you start a battle with a pre battle screen. Only when joining an existing battle or caravan quests or any quest that doesnt have a prebattle screen.

Any suggestions are much appreciated.
Thank you

PS. I have tried the following:
  1. Ensured the allocated captain has the highest skill level in that discipline.
  2. Tried changing captains
  3. Tried adding then removing groups
  4. Ensured that the first weapon slot has the matching weapon for that group captain designation
  5. Tried adding groups eventhough I dont have any soldiers for it (Cavalry)

Yeah anytime troops spawn in a situation without the pre-battle setup all group assignments are ignored, reinforcements spawn - your groups are all mixed up.

The OoB system only works with the initial spawn when the pre-battle setup is available.
