Quoting George.
The code has to be published before being run.
Maybe a full publish is necessary when using A7 and Lite-C, but it used to be possible to use a .bat file to compile and run a shared script with multi-player parameters for LAN testing / play.
sample only:
sv.bat
ack_dir\acknex.exe project_dir\script.wdl -eq -nx 199 -diag -win -sv -cl
cl.bat
ack_dir\acknex.exe project_dir\script.wdl -eq -nx 199 -diag -win -cl -ip ip_address
