MP Questions

Post by Greni »

Im still brand new here, so i hope im in the right forum here fr my MP questions, if not move me please :)

We had yesterday the problem that one us disconnected from the game in a running 3h battle and it was not possible to invite him again.

Is possible or planned, that players can join a running MP session to overtake AI brigades ?

Not possible yet, however I think there is a way that all players can start the game over and pickup where they left off. Norb put in a function that saves the time, troop positions, numbers, etc. I don't have access to the game right now, but I believe you can load the save state from the MP Scenario menu. I'll have to double check that though once I have access to my game again.

I believe that such a thing is possible (to save and then subsequently load said MP save) but we have yet to really see it work. We have tried a few times in the past with campaign games, but I cannot recall as we ever did so successfully.
