Hi all, First of all: i discovered this project yesterday...it's fantastic ! Much better then using dosbox or an old OS and all the problems.
My question : How can i play skirmish against ai players or against other computers in my network on my mac installed openRA ? I feel a little bit stupid to ask...
Thanks !

You can assign AI players to playerslots in the lobby.
If your computer is on a LAN connected to other computers, then there shouldn't be a problem in detecting and joining any games on the network.

Thanks for your reaction !
When I want to start a skirmish game, I choose 'create game' on computer 1. On computer 2 I choose 'direct connect' and I type in the IP of computer 1. In the lobby they see each other and everything works fine. But when I start the game It play's like a mission on both computers and it's having an objective... This won't let me play against each other like skirmish. Could someone tell me how to setup and play a real skirmish game ? I'm missing something....
Thanks !

Oh...
You'll simply need to click the 'Change Map' button. Any 'Conquest' map in the list will allow you to set up AI players and whatnot for a Skirmish.
