Synchronet is a learning experience. I am the same as you when it comes to
programming. Howerver, the main point is for me is not programmning, it is
how to trouble shoot if you have a problem. There is a thing call module and
some of the games are modules and those need to be entered into SFCG for
external games and I found out there needs to be a corresponding entry into a
jason-services.ini file or you get erros. The idiosyncrasy of a particular
progams, the learning of it, comes with time and experience and lots of
frustration for lack of knowledge about the product. But there is support
out there and I have received it.
I really didn't have a lot of trouble setting up my games, just to learn what
syncrhronet passes as parameters like %# and %f came in real handy and in
setting up batch files (%# is the node number and %f is the full path of the
drop file)
You got it right, tedious is not a strong enough words in setting up things.
