How to keep custom lobby game settings when hosting?

Hello everyone, hope y'all good!

Everytime I create a new lobby to host a game with my friends, the game settings are reset to a... curious default (no game mode selected, real world map, 25 pop, explored map, post-imperial, 55min treaty). Then select "Random Map" and it sets a more sensible default settings, but still... Is there a way to keep the last game settings? It works like that in single player.

Seems a "me" problem because I couldn't find anyone else complaining about it.
