DeMONS/2 for N4 is quite a bit different in terms of architecture.
Also, when the launcher displays the launch time, it's not including the
seconds.
So, let's say you have a host configured to use continuous loop timing
set with a one-minute delay. If you click the START button on the
launcher dialog at 07:15:45, the launcher will display 07:16 as the time
to start, but it won't start until 07:16:45 (one minute after you
clicked the START button).
DeMONS/1 for N3 only controlled a single server per installation of
DeMONS. Because of this, there was a START NOW button. I was thinking
of adding that to DeMONS/2 for continuous loop races, but that
restriction seems a little confusing to me, so I decided not to add it.
