Never heard about anything planned like that. We could make something, that the game logs into a server somewhere, and checks for other users and games that are available. You can then decide if you want to make access to multiplayer to work with a password or not, making it either available for public or making it private. What do you think?

The thing i will prob use has a lobby plugin. Only it requires a dedicated server: and a PostgreSQL install. I could also use an php alternative, , it is easier but less professional and is lacking in some areas.

Does Supremacy actually need a lobby? The game has a Multiplayer system already built in and working...

Ah k then. I don't have much experience with lobbies other than for Armada 1, coz of all the convoluted ways I have to use to get BOTF to multiplay.
