Multiplayer Cooperation

[ClaudeMetz]

Have the possibility to share subfactories with all players on the map (or force?). Every shared subfactory has an owner who can edit it, everyone else can just view it, to avoid complications with simultaneous edits.

Personal subfactories still exist, and are a separate category to the multiplayer one. This is reflected by their own header in the subfactory list.

Subfactory ownership can be transferred of course, and there should be a nice way to move a plan between shared and not shared. Probably inside the subfactory dialog. Moving a subfactory down from the end of the personal list could also move it to be a shared subfactory, and vice-versa. Maybe subfactories can also not be owned by anyone, meaning they can be taken by anyone without being transferred by someone else.

These categories need their own 'add subfactory' button in the UI, but all other buttons at the top can be shared. The spot that's freed up by removing the add button could be replaced by a subfactory search functionality.

Should also think about having the multiplayer controls (transfer, take possession, etc) in a little box above the subfactory info. Having all that in the subfactory dialog is probably too hidden. I might just remove that dialog then, and have a name edit button right in that new window. If I need space, I think the subfactory info box could be made smaller/removed by moving the stuff inside it elsewhere. Could also include the archive move button since that’s kinda related.

Can think about having custom subfactory categories/sub-lists that people can add, but eh, feels like a bit much. The global District idea kinda replaces this anyways, in some ways.
