How to setup a multiplayer game correctly?

Me and my friend want to play SE4 in our small LAN (only 2 PCs).

What is the best way to setup those 2-Player games?

Everytime one of us finished his round the other has to load that file (turnbased).
That s ok.

But the thing that is boring: everytime we have to click "Load" - and then click much more to go to right path (SE4 doesn t remember the Last "load"-path.

Is it possible to let SE4 remember this path?

When I finished my round the file for my friend is saved on my PC - so he must click his way through all this folders over network to go to my ../savegame.
When he finished I have to the same thing to go to his ../savegame folder.

We can t use batch-files because the filename changes every round
(gamename_playernumber_round : TEST_1_00023).

Are we doing wrong?

Or is there another easier way to play the game in LAN?
