Question/Possible Collab? #1

Hello! I'm a big fan of the Mayors Report Android app that you built. My downside is that the data is only available on a small screened phone or tablet, when I have multiple monitors that would be awesome to open a browser and view the data this way, on a much bigger screen. There is only a single other app that displays data in a web browser, but it lacks all the data that your app provides - which is really the meat and potatoes of what I'm looking to be able to view.

I would love to be able to branch off the awesome work you've put into this or possibly collab with you to include some kind of web interface that I can put together, as another way for folks to view all the cities data.

I was trying to find out some more info on your Steam Workshop DLL file, but I'm not so great at reverse engineering DLLs or C#. I tried to build a C# UDP receiver, but I fear that my lack of knowledge is the reason why it's not returning any data. It appears that I get connected, but I don't receive any info.

Is it possible to ask a few questions?

1) What format is the data returned from the DLL/UDP server? JSON format would be ideal, but I can generally work with/convert to any format. 2) I know the plugin runs on port 35125 from my rummaging around with the DLL, but because it runs as a UDP server, how do I make a call to receive the data? 3) How is the data sent? By that I mean, does it just simply broadcast the data once a client connects? Or does a call need to be explicitly made in order for the data to be returned?

Any help or insight you can provide would be greatly appreciated. I have sent a friend request via Steam as well, if that makes it a bit easier to chat.

Thanks again for all your hard work and look forward to hearing from you! :)
