Post Installing on 2 computers?
Hey, I love CC and am about to buy a copy but I have a few questions.

Can install and register it on two computer, my home workstation and my work laptop, with no ill effects?

If i buy it now, am i entitled to all the updates and the final release?

And, off topic, when diggers are set to mine for gold, do they just fan one spot for anyone else? Is this me or a beta thing?

Thanks alot!

Digger ai is broken AFAIK.
The rest of which I am also curious, IIRC correctly the cost of the current version is discounted from the full version when released.

I don't think you could, but I am not sure. You could always try though, attempting to register on two separate computers won't kill your key. You could install and register CC on a flash drive, and take it with you wherever you may go.

Or, you could unregister CC when you leave one computer and reregister on the other. There are quick batch files in Cortex Command folder that serve this purpose without having to run the game.

Yes.

Beta thing. I don't know why it hasn't been fixed yet, in older builds the gold dig AI was perfect.

Oh and, Welcome to DRLFF!

If you want a program that automatically registers and unregisters CC, use the app at the bottom of this first post:

viewtopic.php?p=235795#p235795

basically it unregisters when you exit CC and registers when you launch it via the program

Derp, let me just clarify, buying now will also give me full access to B23, B24 etc?

This is the normal deal which will get you all updates of Cortex Command up to and including the full campaign if and when it is completed.
