Ok, I have a LAN connection. I'm under a router and when two people from the same location try to play in one game it wont let us. "Can not join because another user from your current location is already in." How do I get it to make it so we both can play the same room?

You can make a User Created room by clicking 'Create Room', or you can both try and click on a public room at the same time, the first one would be easier..

once you open the room you can type /invite [username] to invite the person that you are trying to play with

Indeed Rococo, once the User created room is up and the creator joins, then have the next person go in, and then the next and so on. You cannot have 2 people from the same IP in the lobby at the same time. You'll need to learn the commands for UCRs, they're fairly easy, just click on the instructions link at the bottom of the game window and go into "typing" for the commands on how to customize your room.

You certainly can have 2 in the lobby.

I think he means public rooms.

Rob killed the lobby :cry::cry::cry:

LOL you can have 2 players in the menu screen but not in public game rooms. Chat and user created rooms are not affected by this block

Rob killed the lobby :cry::cry::cry:

lol! I'm slow. It took me a good 5 minutes to work out what was wrong with the lobby.. and then I realised you meant the actual lobby. Not the main menu. I've got this bad habit of calling the menu 'the lobby'. I'm sure I'm not the only one.. XD

Just out of curiousity, when was this lobby "killed"?

I had this discussion just recently and can't remember what we decided but I think it was sometime 2002 - 2003

Oh, that explains why I knew nothing about a lobby. It "died" way before I joined. It's only been a year for me. Thanks BB :)

And lol @ the people saying bye to the lobby in that screenshot, heh. Aww.

Wow, thanks for the screen capture. I like seeing the admins identified on the Users lineup too.

I wouldn't put too much confidence in that list!

Hahahaha! Actually, I was referring more to the fact that they're in uniform.

Was long before me but I did hear somthing that at one point Admins were always underlined.

Admins have never been underlined full time. The underline & bold text are tools that we can use as and when we feel it would be beneficial.

Lol that's right. Sorry, i meant the menu screen, old habit. The lobby rocked. And i didn't know you can have 2 players from the same IP in the menu screen, but i guess that makes sense.
