✨ Features

Core

  • πŸ§‘β€πŸš€ Separate forces - Each player gets their own force (player-<name>) with independent research, quality unlocks, and space platform access copied from the default force.
  • 🀝 Neutral diplomacy - Players start in cease-fire (no friendly fire, no shared buildings). Opt into friendship per-player via the GUI.
  • πŸ’¬ Cross-force chat - Normal chat reaches all forces. No need for /shout.
