Campaign map for multiplayer.

[Trebor]

does anybody know about a way to bring a campaign map into a multiplayer server? i have an idea of a way to make a certain type of mod where teams or sides can fight over towns and regions on a map.

This has come up a thousand times. No, the game engine does not support co-op campaigns of any kind and therefore a fully functional campaign map cannot be implemented in a multiplayer server.

There are to ways I can think of for you to achieve what you have in mind.
1. Expand the game's network engine yourself.
2. Use a webpage along with your server. What do I mean...

You have a webpage with your map and there are regions controlled by different "clans" of players. Then you schedule events on your server with battles clan vs clan and the winner gets the area. So, you go into your site and change it manualy or even better with some programming knowledge you can write a script that does it automatically.
