The linux version of wog uses multimouse to 'support' multiple mice. However, manymouse is cross-platform, so, I was wondering why the windows version didn't have it yet. Any unexpected complications that arose, or did they just not try it yet?

I would just assume that they didn't intend to have any multiplayer at first. It started off for just Windows, and I'm sure they just wanted to focus on getting the game done. When that got finished and released they were able to come up with other little goodies to put on other platforms. I dunno though. Just a guess.

It might work, but you would definitely have to improvise a little.
Great to see you posting, Marius!

I think it's something Maks implemented as a side-project when he saw the Controller abstraction work already done for the Wii... Whether this is rolled back into the Windows version seems unlikely given the end of development there and the likely additional support burden.

Well, I'm fine with it being included as an unsupported feature, like it is in the linux version now. I want to see if doing OCDs with 2 mice is feasible at all :P

Heh, thanks. I'm not really active atm though, just browsing the fora a bit. And yes, my server is broken :P
