Is ther a version 4.2.2 still available?
#1
I'm a BASIC guy from way back ( 1979 TRS-80) and until it's demise I was in love with  Heart  DarkBasicPro Heart . So its only in the last couple of years that I have transitioned to QB64PE and I still don't know many of the more advanced features. But I have been working with co-pilot and having some success. I completed 3 apps for an astronomy project. 

Funny thing I learned. Co-Pilot is completely willing to tell you it knows nearly nothing about a topic.... but ONLY if you ask it.  If you don't ask it, it will happily charge right ahead with virtually no knowledge. When I finally asked it, it admitted to knowing FAR MORE about the older QB64 than about any version of QB64PE.  But now that that is out in the open, we were progressing nicely. 

Anyway I ran into a problem with the networking commad _OpenClient   Copilot assures me this was working right in V 4.2.2 but I can not find any 4.2.2 on your site. I have 4.2.0 and 4.3.0.  Is co-pilot hallucinating or was there even for a short time, a version 4.2.2 available and if so, can I get the windows installer?

All our releases are here.  There's never been a 4.2.2 version.   We went from a 4.2 release to a 4.3 release.  CoPilot has been drinking too much eggnog without enough eggs in it.  Big Grin

OpenClient still works as far as I know, without any issues.  Nobody has reported anything breaking.  

There's a simple demo of two programs talking to each other via openclient/openhost here: https://qb64phoenix.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=2858

Give that a try and see if it works on your system.  Compile and just run the same program twice and let it work across both screens.
