Playing a custom scenario in multiplayer

[Alex319]

If I want to create a custom map using the WorldBuilder and then play it against another human using HotSeat mode, how do I do that?

And also, is it possible to use the WorldBuilder during multiplayer? (I know it's not normally possible, but is there a way to turn it on?)

I downloaded a Europe map and selected it for a multiplayer game with 2 of my friends. After I clicked launch, it said "sending map data" and the game took a couple extra minutes to start but then it worked fine. Easy as pie. I never tried hotseat, but why would it be any harder (it might even be easier).

This wasn't possible before, but in the new patch you should now be able to do this. (MP worked fine, PBEM/Hotseat was the problem.)

Not AFAIK. This would be considered cheating
