Any hope of multiplayer in future?

151 surfimp  8.8 years ago

First off, hello, and want to say how much I've been impressed by SimplePlanes. I've been a flight sim fan for a long time, and one of my favorites was FST (Flight Sim Toolkit) released in the early 90s. FST was the same basic idea as SimplePlanes, just with much worse graphics.

In any event, I love what's been accomplished so far and was wondering if there was any hope of multiplayer being added in the future? It would be amazing to play this online.

    @Nickasaurus I wish there was a way to help (besides purchasing the game 4 times(yes I did that))

    @Flightsonic @surfimp they already looked into it. As it stands multiplayer is very tricky and requires servers. The bad thing is that Jundroo isn't making the most money right now so... Yeah.

    Dogfighting, racing... I can think of a lot of really fun multiplayer use case scenarios. I know MP is hard, but if there's any way it can be added, it would be amazing!

    @CDUflappy True but i mean the other player being a sort of "better AI" (Or worse) to test with dogfights and stuff

    Regaurding what @Nickasaurus said (yes I do know about it) about the mod, why not add it into the game? Yes as it's been said by the devs that it's a construction game, but wouldn't your friends be the ultimate test for your planes?

    That's OK! It will be amazing when it happens.

    There is a wip mod for multiplayer in late alpha. Soon there will be a beta you can download letting you play together... But not yet.
