Bug #72
Loading a savegame kicks all clients
100%
Description
The save-game from the server should contain the 'n'
player id. Somehow, clients, connecting in order
(remember Quake2), should be able to "spawn" in their
slot in loaded saved games.
This was possible in Doom...
sersetup -nodes 2 -loadgame 0
Perhaps with, at the command line, once connected:
serverloadgame 'n'
Or just have the game know that it's in a multiplayer
game, and the loadgame command works appropriately.

To better summarize:
2 Players are playing Coop.
Server machine (non-dedicated) saves games.
Try to load savegame while still connected simply disconnects
clients.
On client reconnect, his gamestate is "reset." And he doesn't
spawn in his player start. He also sees the server as standard
grey marine, regardless of custom player settings, etc.

I have now tested savegames in 1.7.11/net2 and things
seem to be working. Could it be that the client was using
the same player ID as the server? (A copied installation?)

Yes. Doomsday was re-packaged for a friend without access.
The client.id files created by Doomsday were identical
between the two clients.
This will make loading/saving netgames not possible.
This can be closed!
