Enable multiplayer cheats?

Post by HoreKanon »

We're just two guys playing by ourselves, and would like to enable building while in pause mode. We're aware that this is considered cheating, and it's disabled in multiplayer mode. Is there some way for the server to enable this cheat? Perhaps via the console? Could this perhaps be included in an upcoming release if it's not there already?

There are times when JPG is useful, TTD screenshots is not one of them. Please use PNG instead.

You can get around the cheats being disabled by editing source and recompiling the game... Im not surprised that the game desynches... reminds me when I was playing a game with 2 friends... and one desynched over and over as soon as anyone built a section of rail. Turned out he was using an older version of a custom build.
Siggy not gonna work unless someone allows javascripting...

You can also save the game, load in up in single player, enable cheats, save it, load it up in multiplayer.

Hmm, that is a bugger. Ah well, for now you will have to put up with no cheats then.
