It looks like a lot of the servers listed there aren't getting updated game stats any more. Anyone have a clue what's going on?

If I broke something, have Eleq contact me.

I did a little further digging on this and it appears that all of the servers running TWSG V1.03 are updating regularly. However anything running TWGS V2.00 or higher is no longer being updated.

I'm not surprised. I know Micro made changes to keep up. I'm sure it's a minor thing, but I'll need to get with Eleq to work it out.

The copyright and greeting changed slightly, but the most notable difference is the the way the ! menu works. TWGS v1 stays at the description menu and v2 returns to the main menu after you view a game description.

if (TwgsEdition == 2)
{
FM.Send("!");
}

TWGS v1 ! returns to the main menu and v2 q returns to the main menu. Sending a q in v1 disconnects.

if (TwgsEdition == 1)
{
FM.Send("!");
}
else
{
FM.Send("Q");
}

Hey guys,

JP told me a few weeks ago it didn't update anymore. I just haven't had the time to fix it. And I'm not sure when I'll get the time to fix it.

I wrote that code a long time ago now and going through it is a bit of a chore. Practically have to relearn it again.

I have a few days off next week but I'm not going to fix it then, either. I'm going to ride my motorcycle instead. Priorities, you know?
