Sup folks. To be clear, I'd fully expect for literal cheat codes in multiplayer to either require some form of "consent" from other human players (some kind of vote system perhaps?) or at least be publicly telegraphed to other players so they can decide whether to bail or not.

My intended usage case is very narrow, however. I have usually one, sometimes two human friends, and most of what we do in Civ is team up against the AI peanut gallery. The specific cheat we have discussed experimenting with is the REVEAL ALL command.

I have used this command in solo play successfully, and I absolutely understand why it should be difficult to figure out how to import such a cheat into human-versus multiplayer. But I'm asking, is it physically possible? Would it require all connected machines to perform their own necessary config file edits? Would it require that both players call the command, and only once the vote is "human unanimous" (because fuck those AI) would it respond accordingly?
