I need some more online players to test my multiplayer code more thoroughly please.
Online Sailing & Racing Website
Note: cursor up/down is a single player only cheat to get you out of trouble, it is not meant as the primary means of movement. Sail controls aren't yet coded.
Wind is simulated, dark patches are strong wind, light patches are dead wind. To see the direction of wind note the angle of lean on your boat and the direction of any areas of dead wind caused by the surrounding landscape.
I am most interested to hear feedback on your multiplayer experience, did it lag for server or client? How many players? Did the race feature work? Did you enjoy it :)? etc.
