How to load and save multiplayer game ?

[harlock]

Hi all,

I play 0AD Alpha XV Osiris on Linux.

Multiplayer game works perfectly, except the fact that there is no load game button. A previously saved Mp game can be loaded as a singleplayer game, but the opponent cannot connect to it.

From the previous posts I understand that it is not implemented, but is it planned ?

It it possible to trick the engine by converting a saved game into a new game scenario, wich could then be loaded in multiplayer match setup screen ?

There are certainly plans to implement it, but nobody is working on it yet.

Saving it as a scenario won't work. You'll lose a lot of info. F.e. scenarios don't save garrisoned units (they just won't be there when you load the game), and dynamic stats (like health) would just start again on the original (max) value.

Thanks for the answer.

It Will be very usefull to implement, as plays usually last 3-4 hours.
