Add multiplayer.

Game version 0.4.3

Description Pls add a multiplayer option. I would like to see a duo and maybe even trios option. If you did I probably give this game a 10/10.

Exactly

Adding multiplayer would be a huge project so it's not a priority right now. I'll leave this open though if anyone wants to discuss exactly how it could work.

It would be pretty difficult to do so. I don't know much about coding and such, but I'll take a stab in the dark.

Multiplayer would allow both or all the players to work together in scavenging, sharing resources, and exploring corridors, just like a single-player, but whenever someone does something, it (in simplicity) affects one 'world' as if they had done the action themselves. For example, if I took 5 food out of a trap, in that same exact location and trap, my teammate, if they are on that exact block, will see that 5 food was taken out of the trap (assuming that both players have the EXACT seed). But this same concept applies to EVERYTHING, whether it's clearing a path, defeating pests, or building, whatever someone does something, it will directly affect the other person's world/seed.

Also, it would most probably require a chat system, but that is optional of course.
