┌─── ProChess 2.0 introduces a new feature for multiline systems: ───────────┐
│ │
│ The RealTime option allows a player on line 1 of a bbs to play an online │
│ chess game against another player on line 2. Of course, there is no │
│ limitation to the number of bbs lines, i.e. a player on line 17 may also │
│ play against someone on line 66. │
│ │
│ The RealTime feature is (as always) very easy to understand: │
│ On the main menu the player (or the Sysop who is simulating a second line, │
│ e.g. on a LAN) enters 'R' to get into the RealTime menu. On top of the │
│ screen all running RealTime games are listed with their number and status. │
│ The status indicates whether a game needs a second player ('Joe Sysop is │
│ waiting for second player'), is being played ('Game in progress') or has │
│ been finished ('Game over'). │
│ │
│ A player may enter a game which is waiting for the second player by │
│ entering the game number. Joining games in progress is only allowed if │
│ the player is already involved in the game. You see, it is possible to │
│ play multiple RealTime games simultaneously! │
