   Kingpin Coop
--------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a Mod for Kingpin that allows players to play a coop game.
(where 2 or more players play through the single player version of
the game in a cooperative fashion).
It is pretty much mandatory that you have the latest patch 1.20+ to
run this mod.



   Instructions
--------------------------------------------------------------------
the normal procedure for starting a coop listen server causes some
instability problems with kingpin.

so it's recomended you use a dedicated server. you can still play a
coop game with only two computers, you just have to start both a
dedicated server and a client on the same computer.




   1. STARTING A DEDICATED SERVER
--------------------------------------------------------------------
execute kingpin with the following parameters:
+set dedicated 1 +set developer 1 +set game coop +exec _start.cfg

The _start.cfg file should executes the following commands:
set coop 1
set deathmatch 0
set max_clients 4
set hostname "Coop Server"
map kpcut1




   2. CONNECTING TO A SERVER
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Start up the client and look for a server under the gangbang list.

Or...Start up the client with the following parameter:
+connect <insert server's ip address here>

If you don't have a separate machine to act as a dedicated server
just run a second copy of kingpin as your client. (in effect you
will have a listen server).
