**Thank you for your interest.
Unfortunately, the game has moved in a direction where I will no longer be playing it and thus development of my tools has come to an end. They will remain unavailable for the time being.

Special thanks to these guys for having supported my projects in the past:
Ayeah, Snib`s awesomeness strikes again!
Nice Tool. Can you add a ping summary at the end in the log? Also the Pings in the log don’t have a CR at the end of each line (having that in there would have a nicer formatting when opening the log with notepad instead of write or notepad+).
Your tools proves that the SC con_tester has a bug because I always have 1 out of 30 pings in the con-tester missing (3% packet loss). But no packet loss (with 30 retries) with your tool.
If the hostname’s not found, it gives an untrapped exception. Tsk tsk.
Is just tried to run the ping tester again and run in an error:
See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
For example:
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.
If the hostname’s not found, it gives an untrapped exception. Tsk tsk.

There is exactly zero error handling in that code, as I said in the thread I originally posted it in it was just a quick hack and that was no understatement. 
I’ll fix it tomorrow, just came back from some skiing. 
Updated to v1.2
Download the fixed version from the OP. I know that ideally the tool would grab the list of servers it is testing from some online resource so you would never need to update it but hey I’m lazy. xD
Thanks.
Worked! I wonder where all the Russian servers are located, so next time when I visit RU I can play sector con with low ping :lol:
On a side note, after about 20 tests it crashed my workstation computer, the screen froze and then turned black with a mouse pointer on screen, have to restart :smoke:

Aaaand now you mine bitcoin for Snib. Good job Milf!
Hmm, thanks for the reminder about this one, have to admit I kinda forgot about it.
Updated to v1.3
* Server list updated
* Auto-updates

I don’t actually know, maybe something to ask in the dev questions thread so I can add the info.

I am rather confident that it’s impossible for the tool itself to cause that. Are you running a firewall/antivirus that might have “choked” on the high number of outgoing requests (it’s not that high actually)? Would be interesting to see what was written in Windows’ event log if you have access to that.

Or that!

Well I’m at work using their alien-technology workstation so there’s both software and hardware firewall as well as several anti virus and protection on (thx taxpayer…) maybe they just freaked out on how low my ping is :lol: On the other hand it’s pretty accurate, my lowest ping in-game with F11 on is 6.

I officially hate you!

Can’t be that well protected if it lets you install my software~
Updated to v1.5
Thank you for your awesome tools!
Hope to see you back in space on day!
