If you don't see any servers even with this mod enabled, then that probably just means no one else in the world is playing Swinc multiplayer

@JoshTheNerd is something not working with it? I did test it and it did work fine for me.

pls update this mod bro

@Cyba thanks! I've some big projects to manage at the moment, so my time is pretty small and I mostly use it to stay away from the computer But yeah, I'm eager to return to modding and create some nice mods.

I went ahead and gave the "Take my points" award on all of your mods. Its the least I can do. I don't know if it helps at all however, I appreciate the support for the community you have given regardless of your decision to embark on the journey of the proposed modification to the game. Thanks again and I will be standing by in case there is a change, answer and/ or confirmation. Thanks again!

I quite like both modes. I believe that the one with everyone on the map feels a bit more immersive but if for some reason someone needs more space for people than that then the everyone having their own map would be a great fallback. That's actually kind of sick. Ill keep an eye here to see if you all decide to work on something like this. As I have said its is certainly something the community would really appreciate as its an issue that I keep running into and I am sure others are as well (I have seen a few forums where people struggle with the limit lock as well). So if this is something you are able to do and have the time at some point it would be such a luxury mod to be able to play with all of my friends at once. Regardless thank you for taking the time to read this. Know this the community does think highly of your team and skills as well as the mods you produce for users like myself.

Adding on to the idea though, the limit could probably be pushed past 8 ^^

There could be 2 map modes, in which one of them, everyone has their own map and the player limit is as high as the game can handle, and in the other one, each player is given a 16x16 lot where they can only build upwards but are still able to see other players' offices.

(he's lying all he does is play steam games 24/7)

Hey @Cyba, it seems theoretically possible to do something like that looking at the code, but I sadly don't really have time for such a mod at the moment. Its pretty ambitious, but the idea sounds very interesting!

I know this is an older mod now but I was wondering, and was informed that your team might be able to help me and the community. I have tons of time on the game and quite love it. I was wondering if there would be any way that you would be able to make a multiplayer expansion mod sort of a instead of 4 players 8 players would be able to connect and play. I have a bit of an issue since the friend group I play with is quite large and people get excluded when we do runs through the game. Thanks for your time and consideration.

@daRedLoCo thanks for the understandable reply!

nice mod, helps expand my search area to find more valid servers to join

@SkinnyOTB due to the nature of the games simulation we can't do this (at the moment). Modding multiplayer at this point is difficult, as there is no "easy access" as for the rest of the game. It would also need a change of "core elements" of the game, so you'd probably have a very different experience with the game otherwise. Nothing we really want to include, as we want to keep it as "vanilla" as possible.
We probably will take our time to enhance the experience in multiplayer, but "working on the same thing at the same time" is way over our capacities at the moment, sadly.

Does exactly what it says on the tin.

Nah that's a limitation with the game. Kenneth, the developer of Swinc, said that he didn't add it for syncing reasons. Since players start and finish the month at different times, one player might have finished, giving the other no chance to contribute.

is there any way for a mp mod to allow more than one player to simultaneously work on one project?

@JoshTheNerd you're welcome
