i think something like private messaging to certain players would be cool and not so difficult from the server end. the server just chooses the socket ID to send the packet out to and that's it. Make it something like if you want to PM player 7 and you're player 1, press "t" and type "/7 (message)" without quotes or parenthesis

i also think (a more difficult feat) would be the ability to host under a different port for router users who aren't allowed to open up 10053 for jj2. The reason this would be difficult is because it would be nice if the receiving end didn't require a "PortPatch" to join. Uh this i kno is possible but i'm too tired to think of how since it's 3:30am sunday morning.

Another not so easy feature would be the ability for 33+ players to join. Don't ask i don't know how that would be done.

Another semi-difficult would be the ability to only allow a user inputted number of downloaders at a time to prevent flooding/crashing.

As a console app i would like it to not operate on strictly command lines because that's too confusing. Make it start up
