Default Re: Multiplayer Improvement Suggestions

We have a long list of things we would like in the game. What you want arent bad ideas but they have already been done at least alitle bit.

Maybe its because Im an old hacker so I like making things happen my way. There is a switch on the Dom2 program called --postexec which will do whatever you ask after each hosting. Im not sure if it works from the player end but Ive had some fun at the hosting end. Ive had it send me emails telling me to do my turn, text Messages to my cell phone, or yell at me at my computer (basically a batch file that plays a certain wav. I used a free program to make a wav telling me that its my turn)

The chat thing alot of people do with stuff like IRC or Instant Messenger.
