I am gonna have to set up a server one of these days, so I can force my players to fight on one of my maps. Computer opponents are so boreing, they never cry.
We still have to iron some things out about running a "host-and-quit" mode. Files and file transfer are not a problem but running many copies of the host at once sure is. Its a memory hog and doesnt clean up old connections well.
