Doesn't get retweets #3

Hi, thank you for forking and fixing this!

I was scraping tweets based off their username and noticed everything under the retweet column is false, meaning no retweets have been scrapped

Hi You mean the number of retweets?

Hi You mean the number of retweets?

Sorry no I mean there is a boolean retweet column that indicated whether or not something tweeted by a user is a retweet or not

Hi, any update on this issue?

I'm searching tweets by text and only getting non-retweets too. It is unable to pick up any retweets despite knowing for a fact that it should (using the Twitter direct API) and as you can see every tweet that is picked up has the retweet variable as FALSE.

@ClemLanoe in the wiki there's Retweets (bool) - Get retweets done by the user.

Haven't tried it yet but give it a shot if you haven't already.

Update: this doesn't work
