NETWORK PLAY
Starting a network tournament
1) For the host
In this dialog, the list of the players participating to the tournament is displayed and the various options can be modified: type of the tournament (free deals above, duplicate below), number of deals, minimum or unique bid, restrictions, participation of the computer to the duplicate tournament, random first deal.
With a free deals tournament, it is possible to modify the position of the players while clicking and dragging its name in the list. It is not possible in duplicate because it is useless since at the same time every player will play the same deal in the South position.
On the right side, a message service makes it possible to the players to discuss the options chosen by the hosting player of the tournament.
2) For the other players
The same dialog as the one displayed to the hosting player then appears, with the difference that it is not possible to modify the options, but when the host changes one of them, this modification is immediately visible to all the players online.
The player has also the possibility to send messages to all the other players.
