Run a dwarf fortress massview/masscontrolable game
« on: August 01, 2016, 01:06:17 am »


Is there any utility that could allow multiple people to remotely play a instance of dwarf fortress, or at minimum, watch one?

Watch one - any old livestream service would qualify.

Dynamically switch who is playing - DFTerm can do this, I think?

Multiple simultaneous overseers - none exists so far as I know.
