[Suggestion] Multiplayer Setup Tutorial #301

Hello! Thank you so much for the modification and for all your collective hard work.

I came in here to make a request. I'm uncertain how online multiplayer is configured within OpenJKDF2 using the new Valve GNS implementation, and what are the limitations/requirements. Does the multiplayer only work with LAN? How is it configured? Do we have to share IPs and port forward as in previous versions? Do the base games (Steam, GOG, Disc) all have to be the same version in order for it to work?

I've searched high and low for any sort of guide or documentation that would help me get things setup, but to no avail. If I may, I ask that someone take the time to write a guide for setting up and configuring online multiplayer for OpenJKDF2. How to host, how to join, how it all works. If someone could do that, I would greatly appreciate it.

Once again, thank you so much for all your hard work and your time. Have a great day!
