really?

AIUI there wold not be a need for the levels to be in sync. This is because 
the way the
server-client split was designed, only one of the the two would be running 
the underlying engine.
The other player would be running just the client end of Enigma, which would 
be sending information about input to the server,
and displaying images/playing sounds when the server commands it to.
If that model is kept then it would be entirely possible to be playing 
levels that are part of a levelset you do not have locally.
(The other player would be the server).

But there is no disputing that the main nigma executable would need 
compatability.
