Replay files:

When you play multiplayer mode (single-player not supported) the game will save a replay file
when the game is over. By "over", it means either the opponent disconnects or either maternal
vessels have been destroyed. No replay is saved if you alt+f4 before this!

The replay file will always be called "LastReplay.hg3" in the "replays" folder, so if you want
to save it you must rename the file.

To view replay files, choose the "R" option from the multiplayer menu. During replays you can
toggle player views with the TAB key.

Replay version hg2 (compared to hg1) adds synchronization between Win32 and Mac versions of
the game. New replays are not compatible with old versions of the game.

Replay version hg3 adds player names and chatting. Older replays (hg2) still works (rename them
to hg3), but hg3 replays doesn't work in older versions of the game.
