| Post subject: | How do you edit how many sectors |
Hello all, I am trying to learn to edit in the new TWGS. How do I edit this line. Maximum players 200, sectors 1000, ports 400, planets 200. Also how can I set up my router so that players can find my games, when I am ready to start up. Thanks JamesTKirk |

OK I figured out how to set the sectors. What is the yellow line as I move through sectors? |

Sectors and ports are set at bang. What yellow line are you referring to? As for the router, you need to research "port forwarding" and "dynamic DNS." |

I have never seen that before. What telnet client are you using? Wait, are you running with ansi animation on? |

You need to setup DynDNS so ppl can follow your IP. Then you need to setup port forwarding in the router to point to the TWGS server. |

I can clear up the mystery about the yellow bar. It's a progress bar. It only shows up when there's a delay longer than half a second, and when you have animation turned on. It's meant to clarify that something is indeed happening when you're using long delays, like the long Interdictor move delay. |

Again thanks It will stay up reliably, the yellow bar you can shorten or lengthen the time it displays for (how to warp 1 sector to the next) from the -Z- Timings editor in tedit. Its some pretty advanced stuff in the timings, you may want to get to know the new tedit a bit before tweaking the timings. |
