This. Like hosting a minecraft server you will need to open up a port in your network and forward port 4500 to your machine. Keep the server running and give your partner your ip and port for their editor config.xml file. Then you can both connect to your server and edit your game at the same time without the possibility of dropbox overwriting all of your work :P

Thanks man!

For a seamless way to work on the same game between two PC's you can register for and install Dropbox. Dropbox acts like a folder on your computer that you can put the game files into and it automatically updates changes for everyone else who has access to your dropbox, and its free.

If you need help with setting it up just throw me a PM and id be glad to help.

errr... would it not be easier to run the server, and you both login on it? O.o

If you open your port be sure to open it for all the firewall, I got one from my anti-virus and one from my router. If you have a firewall on your router be sure to reopen it every time you loose electricity. Else your pc gonna change his pc...

 

Well it's for netgear router, for the other I dk

Foward port 4500, give the Dropbox link to your friend, and in the client folder, go to Data, should see config, open that in notepad and make sure your friends ip is set to your ip. Walah!

If you're talking about having two programmers on one project, try learning subversion control with git. github.com is always recommended
