I think it's time for some news on that long-overdue update, the Emptosoft Network Simulator version 1.8. The news is that it's almost finished - the built-in pinging program is working perfectly (it could be more efficient, but it's a start). The only reason that I'm not releasing the update now is because I am still investigating one flaw I found in testing, which can make the whole thing fairly useless. The flaw is the fact that when a lot of instances of the built-in pinging program are started, they all seem to stop pinging rapidly. This may just be a simple defence mechanism of everything I've tested the software on so far, or something more complex. If it is something more complex I shall still release the update, but I will let the user choose which pinging program they want to use.

In other news, I now have proof that this blog can cope with people other than me posting stuff on it (that post also demonstrated to me how watertight the validity checks are, and how useful the emoticons are ). I could say so much more, but I won't...for now...
