Multiplayer?

Has ANYONE managed to play RT3 multiplayer with two computers on a network? I get the usual problem of different economies and getting out of sync. The only reason I play Railroads! is because of multiplayer, but RT3 is much better if only I could run it multiplayer. Any ideas of what to try or what might work to get the computers to stay in sync? would a direct cable connection work better than going through the network?
Thanks

I believe I think I remember I once read... you can see how reliable this is... that the way to multiplayer involves starting a game and saving it, them starting the saved game as a multiplayer game. With multiple players starting a new game the economies don't match.
