How to automate mtr

The internet has become a slightly more crowded place.

We are no less susceptible to lag than anyone else, however, when our
network connection lags people die!

Want a quick easy way to validate the connection to the game?

Linux users can help by either looping this shell script while playing
or adding it to their cron tab.

#!/bin/sh
# Created by Kellin@retromud.org
# Logs mtr reports

TSTAMP=$(date "+%Y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S")
LOG_DIR=/var/log/latency

echo "--START ${TSTAMP}" >> ${LOG_DIR}/mud_retromud_latency.log
mtr -rwbzc 100 mud.retromud.org > ${LOG_DIR}/mud_retromud_latency.log
echo "--END ${TSTAMP}" >> ${LOG_DIR}/mud_retromud_latency.log
