The answer is yes and yes. if you run CIM, then TWXSync will get it and if you run ZTM, TWXSync will get it. Anyone connected to that game will then receive the data in real-time or when they log in later.

Mind you- that is only for the helpers, not for TWXProxy.

Yes at present.... but the helpers can export out their data and you can then import that data back into TWXProxy.

Due to the unfinished "modularization" of TWXProxy it makes it a little difficult to make TWXProxy more modern without breaking something else Elder has done a bang up job making sure that anything added doesn't break something else.

No offense meant for Elder
With Elder not being the original author and not an Uber Delphi Programmer changes to TWXProxy are gonna come slow.

And if Elder is following the error on exit that people have been complaining about I think I have located a module where it happens.... it is in the Telnet code (code that was originally written in 1996) My debugging skills are somewhat lacking but I have started up TWXProxy and killed it w/o connecting and no error but once I connect and then if I close TWXProxy with or without disconnecting I get the exception thrown.

Laff. I'm sure EP will come around to clarify this... but to my knowledge all known bugs have been fixed in the upcoming release save 1 (that he's working on) that you probably have never encountered.

Whether it will ever support TWXsynch... well, you'll have to ask him.

The only reason why I don't use twxsync is that I don't use attac, or swath, so twx would have to support and sync with it, now in my oppinion that would be uber cool and the ultimate.

Thanks guys.

To the best of my knowledge, all confirmed bugs are fixed, except for one relating to set/getSectorParameter. There are one or two other reported bugs that I haven't been able to reproduce, and so it's possible they still exist. Between now and the 2.04Final release, I'll be hunting additional bugs and trying to fix the one remaining confirmed bug.

I would like to add TWXSync support, and will probably be working on it with earth after the 2.04Final release.

Did you ever get the bugs worked out of TWXSync?
I know a few people that had trouble with it locking up.
But if it's working now i would think about buying a copy.
For sure would buy it if it worked with TWX (hint hint EP)
