OK, so everyone has been playing simultaneous-turns Civ2 Multiplayer now. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work very well once war breaks out. Many people have been saying, rightly I think, that it would be perfect if you could turn on the simultaneous-turns option for part of the game and then turn it off once things get hairy. Unfortunately, you can't do that. I tried re-editing the civ.ini so that the relevant line said "Simultaneous=0" and deleting the line altogether, but both times games saved in simultaneous mode stayed in that mode when you loaded them. It would be nice to have a little program that could change a savegame from simul to non-simul mode. Alternatively, even cooler would be a patch that made a check-box for simultaneous moves under "Multiplayer Options" under the Game menu, like there is for double production and moves. Then you could switch back and forth instantaneously without saving and quitting.
It's probably an extremely difficult challenge, but I thought I would suggest it in any case.
