I've received some requests about how to take closeup, nice pictures due to my costume database. I will post directions here so my other topic doesn't get off topic.

1)Find and open the folder where your Worms 4 data is saved.
2)Open the file named "Default" with notepad.
3)Remove one "/" from the front of "//MANUALCAMERA"
4)Save
5)Now to use the manual camera: In game press "M" to toggle it off and on. In manual camera mode move the camera around with A,S,D,W and Up, Down, Left, Right Keys. Press Printscreen, and "M" again to turn off the manual camera.

I vaguely remember a T17-er telling us about it when the first demo came out, I'd guess he found out then. Or maybe just saw it in there :p

And 'online' means network play too, as I found out to my cost on the weekend!

I think some of the game logic is connected to the camera (which it probably shouldn't really be, but there you go), so moving the camera messes it up. I assume it messes up AI teams as well, but when you're playing the computer that just results in them behaving strangely. When you're online, only your computer would behave strangely, and then it would de-synch.
