It needs away to update database Is there away to update the database if I use your helper after I have been playing a game like you can do in swath and any other PC based helper. In a game on I have been playing for awhile I have 94 percent explored, But your helper thinks I just started the game and shows no port pairs I have currently in the game. The PC based helpers can update their database with the current status of the ports I have explored. So I am I missing some way to do you this with your helper. Thanks for your time :)

I love the app. I have hosted servers and played off and on for years. Great app would like more scripts for it eventually, but this is a great start. If you need a server to play go to the tw website all of us that actively host have servers listed in their jumpgate. Many of us will host custom games at a request.

I absolutely love this app. Can only praise programmer. I have been playing
trade wars for over 20 years. This is Zeus.. I have only one script I ever
released for Trade Wars Zeus Twarp Colonizer. This program is a standalone
twxproxy, but different scripting engine. You can connect to twxproxy using
this app, and program this app to be just like swath on your phone. The
programmer has lost some data somehow, but is still providing great
customer service. Best spent dollar of my life. Hope to see some of my old
friends out there again.. TBH, Kewlbreeze, Vid Kid, LoneStar, phX, Thor,
EP.. just a wave hello all. Cya round. Tradewars will never die!
★★☆☆☆
You have to setup your own server or connect to one already up (if you can find one). Yeah its great game for the throwback element,, but if you're looking for a stand-alone tradewars this isn't it. Yes its great it still works like it used to! I was just mad when I found out I had to run a server myself or find one. Yeh its more fun to run your own server and play by yourself and have total admin control, but then where is the challenge? Thanks to programmer for making this software, now please make it stand alone or have some generic server that is programmed into the game that will work on start, not just a glorified telnet client.
★★☆☆☆
Broken Scripts Cannot be Edited World Trade script always enters a price of zero. If the script is buying something, a price of zero aborts the trade. If the script is selling something, a price of zero GIVES IT AWAY which the port is glad to take. There is a "script editor" on the first screen but it only edits the launch script. The load script button does nothing. There is no way to fix the broken trade script. The telnet client database and custom keyboard work. You can play the game but without working scripts it's painfully slow
