Caster and Broadcast mode
« on: October 29, 2007, 04:13:26 AM »
Ever wonder what option 4 on Caster does? Well I haven't tested any of this, I just know it in theory, so I'm looking for verification and some discussion.

Broadcast allows two people to play on the same computer with 0 delay and people connecting through the internet can watch it live. Awesome for generating hype and doesn't require much bandwidth but the con is that people will be required to have MBAC and Caster installed. Well, anyone watching should have MBAC installed anyways.

It can also serve as an anti-cheat method for keyboard vs pad/stick users as Caster only lets you control one player side. This doesn't work for keyboard vs keyboard though.

Well, in config_caster.ini, there's a section for mapping 2P keys as well. Wouldn't that work to some degree?
