Title: Starcon2 multiplayer? Post by: orz_tw on October 27, 2008, 12:05:45 am Are there IRC channels, hamachi groups, whatever dedicated to Star Control?
I've spent a few minutes googling, and the best I've found so far is #starcontrol on EFNet, which appears to be relatively low activity at first glance. Title: Re: Starcon2 multiplayer? Post by: meep-eep on October 27, 2008, 12:26:57 am #sc2 and #uqm-arena on irc.freenode.net. The former is for SC2 and UQM discussions in general, the latter is for UQM network supermelee.

Title: Re: Starcon2 multiplayer? Post by: psydev on October 27, 2008, 08:48:32 am why don't we just set up a lobby in the UQM melee game that lets you go to a server where people are? You could then challenge people to games through it with some sort of protocol.
To simplify it could just be an IRC chatroom for beta versions. Title: Re: Starcon2 multiplayer? Post by: Lukipela on October 27, 2008, 09:17:18 am Wasn't Novus already working on something like this? Whatever happened to that?

I expect to have a life again in November.Title: Re: Starcon2 multiplayer? Post by: Lukipela on October 27, 2008, 03:43:24 pm Work happened. I expect to have a life again in November. You have a life? I'm jealous. I wish I had the time for one of those thingamajigs. Though looking at the economy, maybe soon I will! Title: Re: Starcon2 multiplayer? Post by: Novus on October 27, 2008, 07:30:23 pm You have a life? I had a trial version a few years ago. Never got around to getting the full thing.Title: Re: Starcon2 multiplayer? Post by: Gekko on October 28, 2008, 03:51:30 pm I think I asked about this from someone in the channel, and they told me that it was a hell to make even the IP entering box or something like that. So if you can program, do it yourself, lots of fellows could have use for it.
