Say what?? (What do you mean??)

Ahh, c'mon, this would be great for those people who can't afford more than 1 computer (no offense)

And it would probably a pain to code - for rather limited gain.

I pass up plenty of old systems that are more than capable of running ZDoom. Sometimes they're offered to me for as little as $20, most of the time they are free. Just keep your eyes and ears open.

yeah it's true for that...I get tonz of old computers lol I have a computer I made from scraps and its 800mhz, didnt spend a dime on it.
but as a feature for zdoom, i'd think it's a bit worth going for. not many people know how to network two computers to play lan.
but also, how many people do you think wil split the keys on a keyboard or get two gamepads for a two player game of doom?

there are many ways to look at this.

So if red means "Not happening", what does blue mean?

Split screen on a computer sounds like it would be a big problem... I've done this with my brother while playing Frogger and we had some very severe arguements...
Sharing a keyboard for a split screen game is no fun.
