"up to 5 Devices"

from Stardock Forums

I just bought Multiplicity off of the Humble Bundle after using the trail version and discovering I like the principle a lot. When using the trail I had 0 issues.

For whatever reason, despite the version saying it supports "Version 3, up to 5 Devices" I can only connect to one secondary PC at a time. Trying to add more PCs just boots whatever was there first, regardless of the location.

Is this intended? Because if what they're saying is I can connect to 5 different devices but only use one of them at a time I'm going to refund this immediately because that's asinine and a boldfaced lie.

Not sure if you caught my very first post, but I edited it as I solved the problem with it not connecting correctly. You should really have a hint or FYI for those of us with multiple monitors. To fix my problem of my mouse getting stuck or unable to move over I had to slightly adjust my display set-up to get multiplicity to register where the edges of my monitor are.

Hello,

Sorry for any confusion.

The '5' was for how many Primaries one could have concurrently activated - it was wrong for the Humble sale initially and was quickly changed to the 1 it should have been.

How many Secondaries (both Seamless and KVM) is dictated by the version.  The trial (only available from us) is KVM Pro which allows for 9 PC (1 Primary, 8 Secondaries).  The humber version was KM, which only allowed for one Seamless secondary (no KVM secondaries as KVM is not part of that version).
