Recently a desync ruined our multiplayer game :/

I have a theory that someone might want to check:

I was at war with another player. An AI nation was allied to BOTH me and him. This may have led my PC to calculate as if the AI is helping me, and the other player saw the AI as helping him.

I've hosted multiple MP games on both GameRanger and Tunngle. Some games with as many as 10 people. I'd love to see a switch to Steam if it improves the multiplayer experience.

Wait why are you replying to a post that is more than a year old?
And, Frankly, anything that could give us stable multiplayer games would be great.
Something safe, stable and fast, preferably without having to download third party software.

People are just too lazy or unskilled to modifie their routers to use direct ip. Hamachi and similar programs have their own issues... Atleast BG should set up Polls to see what people want. I would vote Yes implement Steam multiplayer and matchmaking.
what kind of problems?

I simply setup a tap layer 2 virtual private network.

everyone having their own 172.22.0.0 in the 255.255.0.0 and everything is bridged so you can have 65k computers in the network and everyone seeing each other.

not sure what kind of problem you might have there. Not even NAT, port mapping or anything else is needed.

here's a nice website with good info:
https://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source.html

simply setup a server and the clients (I understood from your command you understand networking)
and distribute the clients automatically to your friends with a little script and everything is up and running automatically on their end.

nice thing: if you use proper encryption and certificates it's safe to assume no one who's capable of hacking this network will hack your network.
Those who can, will target bigger fish.
