Does the Creation engine have a networking layer built in?

Please. Please tell me this engine has a networking layer at least lying dormant under the Skyrim game. I want modders to finally be able to give us the dream game that is Elder Scrolls with 2 player co-op.

Before reading your post I thought you were talking about having multiple people working on the same plugin at once, which would be SICK! :flamethrower:

The editor is for maps and in-game content, it doesn't let you change the game engine itself. It would also be extremely odd for Bethesda to go to all of the trouble of adding networking code and getting the entire engine compatible with multiple players (opposed to streamlined for single player) and then do nothing with it.

Regardless, if you wish to discuss multiplayer as it relates to Skyrim please do so http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1170877-official-discussion-of-multiplayerco-op-in-skyrim/.
