Multiple user working on same file on same time

Hi Everyone! I want to know that is there any possibility in Civil 3D 2019 that multiple user work on same file at same time? Like in REVIT, multiple user work on same file at same time and have options of relinquish and synchronize which automatically update the file . If there is any possibility then kindly let me know this process in Civil 3D. Thankyou.

No within the same file.

 

IT is possible to share design elements such as alignments, networks , surfaces and corridors either by datalinks, xrefs or using Vault. You need to chop the project up into different areas / sections.

 

Sorry I have not used Vault for years so I do not know what you can do now.

Autodesk Vault

is the recommended project management option for large
design teams working with AutoCAD Civil 3D.
The main database resides on a designated server, such as a file server on the
network, and client software is installed on each computer that requires access
to the database.
Using Vault, you can share surfaces, alignments, profiles, pipe networks, points,
view frame groups, and survey data.

 

Data shortcuts

provide complete reference copies of objects that you can insert.

Data shortcuts can be created only for surfaces, alignments, profiles, pipe
networks, and view frame groups. They provide reference links between
drawings without the use of a database.

Shortcuts provide a simple, direct mechanism for sharing object data that
is based solely on drawings, without the added server space and administration needs of Autodesk Vault. This can be ideal for small teams or small projects

Revit-style worksharing is the holy grail for Civil 3D users.
