How about PBEM Support?

Hey everybody.

I stumbled upon a chat room about Moo2 today.
Futurist(ic?) and Cabman might remember.

There, I asked how to effectivly create a PBEM round.

We stumbled upon 2 "major" problems.

1) The first (and worst) problem, is that you can't save the game on the "Choose next Player" screen of the hotseat mode.
So you need to make your turn, save the game, send to next player and HE must click YOUR "END TURN" button to finish YOUR turn first!
That's just stupid and a real nogo.

2) The Host has to know each other players Races/Picks and has to set them up.


My question: Is it possible with the available options to fix those problems?

Thanks for your time.

PBEM idea is futile in MoO2. The main feature of this game is tactical combat between humans. And it can be performed only when players are online.
