Description

While upgrading the enet code (#42) I changed the way the server responds to broadcasts from clients. Specifically: the server now sends a separate unicast reply to each client, rather than a single broadcast reply.

From a user perspective this means that the windows firewall "do you want to block this program?" dialog box should no longer appear when joining a game. (It will still appear if you try to *host* a LAN game or server, however.)
