Applying a new mod to an existing game?

Copy/paste into an existing mod works very well.

So the thing to remember now is : ***the host should ALWAYS START A MP GAME WITH A MOD ENABLED***.

Of course, that doesn't help games that were already started, nor does it help new players who get the game, patch it, and try to play a MP game with their friends. Typically, _after_ the HoF (or other bug) bites them, that's when they start searching the forums.

Actually, one of the mods ought to start a stickied thread with a title like "WARNING : DO NOT START AN MP GAME WITHOUT A MOD!!!"

Then at least newcomers would have a chance of finding out about this before learning the hard way.
