I appreciate the recent feedback, it sounds like most issues were resolved with the 2017v2 release. All of those improvements are carried forward to this 2018 release. Please let me know if there are still issues with Planet trading or other areas.

My goal for this release was to reduce the number of variables used. Of course these consume small amounts of memory, but they are especially painful during variable dumps. I was able to eliminate the large $mcic array and completely rely on Sector Parameters instead.

So while this script still uses hundreds of variables, it used to be 10K or more in a well-scouted game. Mission accomplished - no more 5 minute variable dumps.

Enjoy, and let me know of any issues,
+EP+

Sweet! I couldn't get it to work with TWXProxy's Word Trade script, but it worked just fine with SWATH's!

Edit: this script produces an ICE COLD haggle! I don't see any mercy at all.

There should be, included with the Haggle script, a TWX script something like: Haggle.ts ...backup existing script in you twx\scripts\include folder (path might be slightly different). Copy the Haggle.ts that came with EP’s.

Load the EP’s haggle script, then fire up wordtrade.

I just need to turn off the haggle in TWXProxy without making it crash. The TWXProxy world trade script has an option "H Haggle" in the menu, but it doesn't do anything.

EP's perfect haggle zip file doesn't have a haggle.ts script that I could find. I'm using TWXProxy 2.5.73 if that's what you were saying...? But it's really not important since SWATH has a world trade script.

I re downloaded the EP_Haggle2018 from this site.
It comes with the .cts (compiled script)
a script called haggle.ts and a readme.txt file that tells you
to put the haggle.ts in your twx proxy's include folder.

my directory structure is c:/TWX
this is where your TWXProxy 2.5.73.exe will be
and hence forward be refered to as twx ROOT folder.

Now this is where you find data , scripts and include folders.

TWX does not auto haggle unless a twx script is running in the background.
But before running any twx script , be sure to turn Swath's light bulb off.

Hope this helps.

This beta appears to have expired, halting.
Contact ElderProphet via email, ElderProphet@comcast.net

Script terminated: C:\TW2002\TWXProxy\scripts\EP_Haggle2018.cts

What is weird, is that it is not expired on Vid’s Server

Computer command [TL=00:00:00]:[XXX] (?=Help)? T

But on OCC it is expired

Computer command [TL=00:00:00]:[XXX] (?=Help)? T

My computer time is correct also.

What's even weirder is that on the same server (OCC) where I got the expired message, I am playing in a different game and EP Haggle is working fine.

I dont get it.

I deleted my TWX database for that game. Recreated it from scratch and now the script is working fine.

It's really far past time this got released as a .ts so we aren't playing this same game every year.

Or someone just reverse engineers it. Should be pretty easy to do the math after running the latest version in a game for a while.

Kind of surprised no one has written a CTS decompiler, since the TWX Source Code has been released.

Someone might have, or at least have started one and is working out some bugs :)
