    From esc@21:4/173 to Avon on Tue May 16 15:28:56 2023
    Hey Avon,

    I have BRE, ForHonour, and Galactic Dynasty set up for interbbs and have been exchanging packets regularly. However, I wonder if either something is amiss in my config OR if the games are just quiet. The reason I am sending this message is because I don't see any other users/bbses actively using the games other than me/mine. Is this true or is something messed up on my end?

    Thanks!

    I can only point you to the inter-bbs reports posted in the echomail stats area at present (as an aside I am starting to work on moving these to fsxnet.nz instead and have begun posting updates on my progress in FSX_NET admin echo) ... so that would be a good place to check to see who is playing what.

    I can see something is amiss for you.

    In GD you're running the wrong version of the game, you have version 22 running but the league is running version 23, the gameID is correct at 103

    FH looks to be set up correctly for you

    BRE it seems like it's been a few days since we saw some recon packets from your system.

    I'm going to work on adding these reports (currently posted to FSX_STA) to the fsxnet.nz website, which I hope will be helpful for you and others.

    Over in FSX_NET I'm asking folks to comment on if we really need such reports posted in the STA echo. I guess I'm also wondering if such an echo is really needed? Comments (anyone?) to FSX_NET please :)

    Ah, that explains it. I've been playing the hell out of that game :P Guess a restart is in order. Will get that sorted shortly.

    Yeah, I haven't played that one in a few days, but noticed previously that it didn't really seem like anyone else was playing? I could be wrong.

    Thanks for checking!

    Also, I vote for Clans and LORD for future InterBBS games! :)

    Hey Avon, I reinstalled from scratch using the latest from gitlab.com/apamment/galactic-dynasty - let me know if all looks good, please!

    I haven't really played this one much so I'll have another look on my end and make sure it looks ok.

    BRE it seems like it's been a few days since we saw some recon packets from your system.

    Should have a fresh recon today, please let me know if there are any problems. Again, I appreciate your help!

    I think all looks fine :)

    Sorry for the slow reply.
