Can I "load" a network game?

[Truper]

Doing it that way just loads the game locally.

The easiest way to avoid having to connect to the server each time manually is to create a desktop shorcut for each game that you're in.

Here's an example of the target:

"C:\Program Files\dominions2\dom2.exe" --tcpclient --ipadr benatar.snurgle.org --port 2001 -m -nointro --clickvol 0

It should be pretty apparent what you'd need to edit to make it work for you. If not, ask
