b Multiplayer scrolling is synced

I just convinced my friends to add this to our save and we noticed very quickly that if someone pans the camera, it pans it for everyone.

I'll see about disabling the panning effects, but it'd be cool to have that not synced to the server... hopefully it's not an engine issue.

This is mentioned on the front page and has been reported before. It's technically not fixable in the current mod, but I have since learned of a way to make it work. (See Cerys, which does it well.) It's a pretty large rewrite though, so I'm not sure when I'll have time to change it.

In the meantime, you can disable parallax, or just ensure only one person is viewing a given space surface at a time. It's not server-side, it just only works for one person viewing the surface. (Let me know if this isn't the case anymore ofc.)

Edit: I've actually just thought of a good way to fix this without a massive rewrite. If it works, it should be fixed by sometime this week.

Ok, 1.4.0 should render separate sprites for each player in multiplayer. Please do test this and let me know if something crashes. (It should be fine, but it's possible some random mod somehow breaks it.)

Ah, thanks for looking into it. I guess I read too fast, I did look for this issue.

I'll test it soon.
