Live CTC Messages

Well, "?" requested it, so here it is. Live CTC Messages in a browser. CTC Messages would be the server generated messages in channels 201 and 202. Takes quite awhile for these messages to appear if a convoy isn't currently in action.

I called the server Provide, so that's what Provide is. It's the thing that sends the messages to your browser. It uses flash for the socket connection, so you'll need flash enabled in your browser.

Whenever the Vendetta character "IRC" is offline, this will be offline. Timestamps are in Pacific Time. This is very basic right now, but it works.

I was going to make a Mac OS app that flashes a notification window (like the volume indicator window or the Bluetooth connection lost window) whenever something happens in 201 or 202...now I guess I won't bother.

this is good. Me finding it again is also good.

The last hours it hasn't been sending CTC messages. Very sorry, I had given Relay a new environment to run in so it'd receive no disturbances from me, but forgotten to give it a few settings (like joining all channels).

This means Provide is reading Relay's errors.log.

I made that OSX app after all, by the way, but I haven't released it because I'm too lazy. If anyone wants it, talk to me.
Though it's kinda useless if Relay isn't forwarding CtC messages...

Ah, you should have told me directly. When I looked here, I thought you were talking about the past.

Well, I found out just right now that Provide was not reading the log from the right place and it wasn't complaining. It's fixed now.

Any ETA for the new provide server in London?
