Troubleshooting: While saving a multiplayer game, the host sees a popup that says "Transferring game data to other players." What happens if the host presses the "Quit to Main Menu now..." button in this popup? All the saved game data is lost. The "Transferring" popup will disappear when the data transfer to the clients is complete.
How to I restart a saved multiplayer game?
Sword of the Stars allows players to transfer hosting responsibilities to any member of a saved multiplayer game when that game is reloaded. This added feature can make restarting the saved game confusing at first glance.
To restart a saved game, the host clicks on "Load Game" from the main menu and chooses either the LAN or Internet icons. The game is then advertized to the other players. Once everyone has joined, the host can then load the game.
IMPORTANT: Those re-joining a multiplayer game should not use "Load Game," but should instead click "Join Multiplayer" from the main menu.
