From b6a116a2479eb62aece540633c41d0f54a481fd6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Patric Stout Date: Sun, 11 Jul 2021 21:57:05 +0200 Subject: Add: allow setting your server visibility to "invite-only" (#9434) In this mode you do register to the Game Coordinator, but your server will not show up in the public server listing. You can give your friends the invite code of the server with which they can join. --- docs/multiplayer.md | 11 ++++++++--- 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) (limited to 'docs') diff --git a/docs/multiplayer.md b/docs/multiplayer.md index daccbf06d..ece0c04df 100644 --- a/docs/multiplayer.md +++ b/docs/multiplayer.md @@ -48,6 +48,10 @@ Last updated: 2011-02-16 - click add server - type in the ip address or hostname - if you want to add a port use : + - If you want to play and you have the invite code of the game server you + want connect to. + - click add server + - type in the invite code - Now you can select a company and press: "Join company", to help that company - Or you can press "Spectate game", to spectate the game - Or you can press "New company", and start your own company (if there are @@ -110,9 +114,10 @@ Last updated: 2011-02-16 - You can let your server automatically restart a map when, let's say, year 2030 is reached.
