Unread post Game Freeze
I am using swath and twx.I can play some games and they work fine until I run mombot.If I quit or get disconnected the game will load like normal but will not let me input anything. Twx freezes and I have to tskmgr shutdown.Swath takes commands. I have tried manually loading game,but after the sector void message it freezes,even though I don't have the mombot running.

I have had that happen, randomly on a disconnect if not done correctly you will get a corrupt Database. Delete all the data files for the game your having problems with and reload, enter game run a CIM report and if all goes well you should be back up and running.

If you want to test first if this is the problem just create a second DB and login in normally.

You might also have a script that's triggering and hanging on some text.

as a follow-on to what sing posted. Try viewing your active trigger list: $st and see what, if anything is active. If swath is taking commands, hitting ESC may not do anything, but as an off-the-wall attempt I would try it (may be something in SWATH). If you find a trigger that is looking for text, you may be able to SS send the text - still shooting in the dark.

Having to use task manager to kill TWX may be an indication of a script that has gone into a loop for some reason.

I can't type anything on the screen including comm, I deleted the database and that worked,but one of them froze again. I redeleted it and it seem to be working. I need to figure out what is causing it. Promethius you never responded to my email,is the game up.

If you deleted the twx database and it worked. I would say you are corrupting your database by running a bad ztm script or by logging into more than one game with the current database. If you log into multiple games to check them out, make sure you create a new database for each game or don't use twx if you are just checking out game settings.

It only happens when I am running MomBot. I think a disconnection or running a script outside MoMBot is causing it. I never had the problem before MoMbot. nOne time was from running the same database on a different game,but not the other.MomBot was running and I ran a separate script and it got hung up and I could access MomBot but the screen would not move from then on.Well maybe it want happen again
