Hi, ive just noticed dureing some testing of my game, that my purebasic launcher seems to write out the ip address backwards, im sure it didnt before i updated to the latest pb ver.

Anyhow im using the below code, nothing amazing.
WriteStringN(GetGadgetText(3));ip

if i entered a ip of 127.0.0.1 into the launcher ip gadget
it comes out written to a file like 1.0.0.127...

Any ideas?

Indeed windows allocates a longword for IPs 4x1Byte and that is written backwards.
