There must be a way to restart a TCP/IP or IPX network game, and I just haven't figured it out. We all saved the game, but when we re-load, SMAC goes into "Hotseat Mode" and doesn't let us re-connect. Any suggestions?

It's there, but it is far from obvious.

Basically, you must act like you are going to start a _NEW_ multiplayer game. Then when the host gets to the initial "hosting" screen, choose "Load Game" from the menu that drops down from "Type of Game" option.

Type of Game is around the third or fourth option down on the left of the host screen. After you choose Load Game from there, you are given the usual dialog box to select which game to load.

Hope this helps and ...

SMAC n ... Ted S.
