Player selection (multiplayer)

Hi

I'm looking for a quick resource that works on TGE 1.5.2 that will enable player selection, which also works in dedicated LAN or over the Internet.

I've tried a couple of the resources on the forums but they just don't seem to work for me. Previously I implemented one during the game which worked fine, but need something before the game starts.

Along the lines of ...

Select Player by Name in the GUI
Join Game

Any resources I've missed, or if someone could post a workable snipet of code to get this functional for me, I'd appreciate it.

The code appears to be good, I don't see why it wouldn't work for multiplayer

Thanks - I may give that one a go again. I tried it in the past but couldn't get it to work on 1.5, although I did have a heavily modified version of TGE then. Now back to basics :)

@James - worked a treat this time round. Thanks! I needed a quick solution - just the job.

Sounds like you've got what you need, but if you need more, AFX has awesome player-selection stuff.

Yes, AFX is great. Different type of player selection. Selectrons etc.
