Back ON TOPIC!

How will a save from a server game retain both player's items?

@Psytechnic: I don't know yet

But still some time left and it will be beta anyways.


Yep. The only reason I question it is because it might require a source change. My idea would be to take a copy of the other player's name and items and add that to the save, and that could mean that if someone hosts a game and has different people playing at different times, it would differentiate between players...

At the moment, that is what is most likely. But if you change the way a save is made to include the other player's ID and items on save, when a player joins a game, the game he's connecting to could check that save file (if the game was launched from one) and see if there is a section with that player's ID in. Then restore the items... This does mean new players start with nothing, but previous players get their items restored...

Quite complicated, but being that your head is already in the source, this might be something to work on.

Okay, thanks.
btw. alot ppl sent maps that either resulted in errors or needed additional stuff from other mods. Please remember that you only put stuff from the original Stranded into it and don'T put that Multiplayer checkbox in the editor.
