[Idea of technology for teams sharing resources]

The other day I was thinking in a hypothetical technology (or feature) to develop (or activate) in the market that makes each member in a team to automatically share his resources with the other members that have developed (activated) this technology (feature) too. So for example consider a team of 3 players with the following resources:

• Player 1:
  • Wood = 1000
  • Food = 0
• Player 2:
  • Wood = 0
  • Food = 1000
• Player 3:
  • Wood = 1000
  • Food = 1000

When players  1 and 2 develop this technology (or activate this feature) they start sharing their resources so they will both have wood = 1000 and food = 1000, and now they collect and consume from the same stock of resources. If player 3 does not develop this technology then he keeps playing normally. Otherwise the whole team will have access to wood = 2000 and food = 2000.

It is in some sense similar to the "Carthograpy" (the pidgeon that makes you see what your allies see) technology but with resources.

I think this would be interesting in team games, so you don't need to "pause" your playing and send your resources to your partner when they are needed. And if this is kinda feature that you can activate/deactivate (maybe after developing some technology) you can turn it off in case your ally is wasting resources.

What do you think?

I usually connect through my phone using the hotspot Wi-Fi. I discovered that if this problem happens, restarting the phone is a solution. Restarting the computer does not solve the problem for me.

I guess that, in analogy with my solution, restarting your modem or whatever device you use to connect can provide a solution.

I am not a developer, I am a user, so sorry if this does not go here.

I really enjoy the game and usually I experience no problems. However, sometimes I cannot connect to multiplayer games and I keep receiving the message that is shown in this screenshot:

This happens completely randomly (to me), and it lasts during a whole day usually. When it happens I cannot also host a game, the other players receive this message. But they can connect to other games or host their own games. If this happens on one day, the next day usually there is no problem at all, I can connect to any game and can host games with no problem. I have googled this problem with not much success.

I have tried all the possible combinations with a friend:

1. Me hosting with "Use STUN...".
2. Me hosting without "Use STUN...".
3. My friend hosting with "Use STUN...".
4. My friend hosting without "Use STUN...".

and none of them worked.

I am using this version of 0AD:

in Ubuntu 20.04.

 

EDIT: My solution (NOT WORKING ANYMORE)

I have found that if I restart my phone then this problem is solved. I usually connect using my mobile hotspot.
