I've got most of the flat items of the multiplayer menu migrated to a new Multiplayer Options menu. This menu now also contains the Network Options menu.

It had turned out the the menudef entirely lacked a text input field. I have written one now and "server password" and "server join password" can be edited now.

Offline Multiplayer - Online Multiplayer aren't on the same area?
Indeed Network options should be into multiplayer area.
Well, and what about the login system over here'http://zandronum.com/tracker/view.php?id=1984 [^]'

I just don't get the new game with offline multiplayer option, will it be like
NEW GAME ->
ºSKILL 1
ºSKILL 2
ºSKILL 3
ºSKILL 4
ºOFFLINE MULTIPLAYER?

or

NEW GAME->
ºCAMPAING
ºOFFLINE MULTIPLAYER?

The login menu will be done into the new Multiplayer Options menu.

I was thinking about putting the skirmish into the episode list (thus making the episode list appear unconditionally), e.g.:
- KNEE-DEEP IN THE DEAD
- THE SHORES OF HELL
- INFERNO
- THY FLESH CONSUMED

- OFFLINE SKIRMISH

Not sure I would advise adding it to the episode list since some vanilla mods took advantage of the episode list length being constant. (Multi-line text.) Might even be some that utilize the heading graphic to have a background, but I can't think of any off hand.

Damnit, that's right. That wouldn't solve anything..

I suppose a new menu is necessary then unless we want to put it into the class list..

EDIT: What if we put it under Multiplayer Options at the top of the options menu?

Shouldn't be much of a problem with moving that, although perhaps consider putting it under player setup and then splitting those two into a group since atm we have a link from multiplayer into the player setup.

I'd put it under new game still, but have it go like this:

New game -> Next Menu:
    Single Player*
    Offline Skirmish

* -> Next Menu:
    Episode 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. -> Skills

For now it's under Multiplayer options until we reach a conclusion where it really should go.

Changing the Skill and Botskill in the Skirmish menu changes the value of the skills, but it doesn't update in the menu. Ie. If botskill was initially at 1, and you click on it or hit the right arrow, the skill will change to 2 internally, but the value in the menu still says 1.

Also, adding bots doesn't work. You can select them, but once you start a match, they don't get added in.

The skill issues already seemed to be fixed and adding bots should work now (it already worked for game modes with teams).

I didn't have any issues with the bots joining or the skill levels with 3.0-alpha-150819-2351. Everything seemed to work fine.

This issue is already marked as resolved. If you feel that is not the case, please reopen it and explain why.
