Simple question, can you use a mod on a server game?
Thanks.

I would imagine you could, as long as both players were using the mod. I use the counters mod in my games on the server too. I'm not positive tho.

Ah, okay, cool. I was afraid that it was like Paradox with version checks.

Next question for the perfessionals

If you have ongoing games using no mods and then install a database mod will that affect your ongoing games at all?

thanks,
Mike

No, unless this is not a map text mod.

In fact there is a check, but it is not enabled. We plan to make give player a warning that this is not an official version. No plans to restrict them.
