Now it may connect to Masterserver. Just uncomment MASTERSERVER_HOST at keeperfx.cfg

EDIT: i removed the TODO list -------------------------

We should define a current HARD LIMIT on lobby name length until we can increase the size in the GUI.

Hi @SimLV, i am specially interested in having networking improvements in KeeperFX to have a good experience on multiplayer games with my friends, so i appreciate a lot your work, thanks!

So, please, can you explain what you mean with "Masterserver"? The possibility to have a server on the internet to play against anyone? The possibility to a player be server (so you must open ports on your router and that stuff) and client at the same time like some games?

@AleWin32

A masterserver is a service that allows people to share their multiplayer lobbies publicly. Instead of having to enter an IP to connect to, you will be able to browse lobbies that have been made public by other players.

This you can already do with current release?
