Status: offline 		ok figured it out. Didn't think the host had to enter a port. Thanks worked like a charm. Nice and fast and in 4 hours of battle only one drop. Oh, that leads to the next question - is there an autosave. Couldn't find a load drop game or save game for MP sessions? Thanks!!

Status: offline 		Oh drat. Nothing worse than putting in a 3 hour battle and when you're just hitting a climax - someone drops......Hopefully this is not be a engine limitation and will be looked at. Need a auto save!
Thanks Chris.
