I know you can have a two player game but is it possible over the net ??
...... If not that would be a great addition to the new version whenever it
is released, 8 online players battling it out could be awesome *s ......
kinda impractical but still cool in theory ..

There's a bit of software that _used_ to be available, called Kali. I
don't know if it still exists, but it's probably available somewhere.
What this does is to simulate an IPX network over another network,
without needing the actual IPX network in the first place. There was a
version with the WarCraft II demo, but I don't have that any more, so
can;t help there.

yeah, i used to have Kali.  They would probably have to add support for TTD
to make it work.

Maybe if enough of us requested it, or if one of you know how to fix
something like that up.    How many players does TTD support on IPX anyway?
