Is there anyway to play settlers in multiplayer mode on modern laptops?
I guess what i would need is some sort of serial mouse emulator tms to make it work.

Or a USB-Serial adapter (though i don't know for sure if that would work with DOSBox). Besides, two people in front of a tiny notebook screen?

I solved probem with PPJoykey. Other player must use keyboard, but guess thats ok since settlers does not require fast mouse gestures
