The reason I do the file swapping is so I can connect to the game using the real (unplayed) game directory. That lets me check who has played and how much time is left without risking uploading a partial turn when I'm the only player left to play.
Less of an issue now, with god's eye available, but I'm in the habit of doing it this way.

I had the same problem and God's Eye really helped for this one!
Furthermore I seem to recall that after logging into a remote server, dom2 used to open the game and display the messages immediately. Now after entering the password, it just returns to the info screen with the display who is connected and who has done his turn - this is better, because I can then just exit to the main screen and play offline (and use God's Eye to view my time limit). So am I hallucinating or was the behaviour changed in some patch? Or is it due to switching from windows to linux? Or due to some commandline options that I am using?
