 ZTM
I have completed a full ZTM with swath. I'm out and about checking bubbles however, alot of my data is in correct. Is there something else I need to run after a ZTm is done to make sure all my information is accurate or is this is a sign of a bad game? bad ztm? or alot of broken bubbles

 Re: ZTM

 Re: ZTM
I usually run Swath's ZTM at the start of every game... Did you check the box for Random Pairs??? I usually set that for the same number of sectors in the game...
To verify bubles, I sit at Terra, SD or my starting base... Put the gate sector in my avoids list (C X ###) and then try to warp (not t-warp) into the first 5 sectors that Swath lists, as well as some of the sectors farther into the list... To get the complete list of sectors in the bubble, hit the copy button in Swath, and paste the info into a spreadsheet... Might also work with Notepad or Wordpad, but I've never tried that... You will have a very long line at teh bottom of each entry with every sector that Swath thinks is in the bubble...
On a side note, I have tried using the ZTM that comes with TWX and MoMBoT... The one in TWX expects you to already to be at the special prompt, and the one in MomBot says it's expired, so I don't really know if they work or not...

 Re: ZTM
Neither the ZTM in SWATH nor TWX are great. They take too long to run, and their accuracy is meh. Use a ZTM based on Rev's 6-Pass method (or a variant). If you can't lay hands on one, I can probably produce one.

The warpspec will then be saved as game name warpspec.txt in your twx directory. Then import that file into Swath H

 Re: ZTM
Prome's ztm or ck's 6-pass are both really accurate.
