Multiplayer Questions
After some researching, and fiddling about -- I finally discovered how to play sandbox/campaign levels online with friends. You need to have the stable version of the multiplayer beta loaded up. Enter versus mode, then manually open those scenes with the console tool.

My question now:
How do I play mods as advertised in their multiplayer release video? When I load up mods it simply tells me they're "not supported", and to "please disable" them. Anyone know their way around these woods?

Wait how do you play the sandbox/campaign levels. I tried it with my friend and everytime we'd do it his camera would be stuck underground

Whenever I tried to get my friend into other levels through the developer tools he'd just crash upon loading into the session. If there was anything you did beforehand to make it work I'd love to know

As of some recent build we have made it so mods need to specify that they indeed support online multiplayer.
This has been done since we got a lot of reports of people using mods that absolutely will not work online.

For campaign levels, you can get around that by using `File>Open`. Note that using "Open Level" or "Open Recent" will load levels without their campaign. So clients will not be able to follow. (Though it should no longer crash their games and simply disconnect them)

Inside the mod.xml you can add to allow using Online with the mod active.
`<SupportsOnline>true</SupportsOnline>`

Campaigns and levels can be added to the multiplayer menu with:
`supports_online="true"`
