According to PcGamingWiki:
https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Jagged_Alliance:_Deadly_Games#Multiplayer_types

As well as many other comments I've read about this game, it is supposed to have also hot-seat multiplayer mode. However I can't find it ANYWHERE - multiplayer section is offering only "Modem game", "Network game" and "Direct Connect". I did not found it also in the single player section.

Where is it hidden?

(I've asked already on the JA sub-forum, but didn't receive any answer, so trying my luck here)

JA:DG never had a hot-seat multiplayer mode.
I own the retail version and I checked the box and manual before I wrote this: the MP modes that it features are
"2-player via modem",
"2-player via direct connect", and
"up-to-4-player via network".
The retail version came with two CDs: the "main-CD", and a second CD, called the "Multiplayer-CD".
And that's all.

Thanks, I've read that info (about "hot-seat") so many times, that I was wondering, why I can't find it anywhere.

Many thanks for the confirmation

(I've even decided to register on pcgamingwiki and fix that info)

Did you read the info anywhere other than pcgamingwiki? Just interested as if you did, it's an interesting example of the main issue with wikis - i.e. that anyone can contribute and things get re-reported as fact.

Maximum respect for doing the right thing and registering on the site to fix it.

I'm almost 100% certain that it was included (when GOGmix feature was present on GOG) in the GOGmix (very popular one) with hot-seat games. Plus I've read about it in comments on various forums/websites - I know it's not some "solid" source, but on the other hand, seeing the same info in various places, made me convinced that maybe somehow I've missed this feature.
