Message received, will try to make LW6 not as broken as LW5 ;-) Will still be like that while developping it because it's hard, when you actually *code* the game to make it fully compliant with upcoming releases potentially including features you haven't yet thought of.

BTW, I'm just (at this very moment) patching LW5 so that 5.6.3/5.6.4/5.6.5 can cope together.

Have a nice day,

Christian.

I tried to play liquidwar with a friend over the LAN, he was using
Windows so downloaded the latest version from the upstream site.

When he ran the server I couldn't connect (version didn't match), and
when I ran the server, I got this:

$ liquidwar-server How many teams will connect to this server? 2
Use "-2" to get rid of this question.
Register on "www.ufoot.org/metaserver/" (y/n)? n
Use "-private" to get rid of this question.

Please make LW6 have a version-agnostic network protocol!
