I'm not sure, but I have a potentially useless idea.

If you do it this way (Disclaimer - not sure at all :)):
* All clients do standard flash remoting to tell the server their action.
* All clients register to the same shared object.
* Server periodically tells the client where are everyone else are?
   * Server calculate whether they're stopped or off the screen etcs
and update the shared object.
      Note: only server that is allowed to update, the rest just listen.

That would be great.
