I got it tho; long story short, you can make it do anything you want it to from connect to disconnect - even tweaking the system, although be sure to not doso in a way that breaks when upgrades come out.

And you can absolutely create new features using new .js. Same as before, this is over my head - but I'm learning Mystic's MPL and could probably fart around and make small changes under Enigma easily, too.

Also, the mrc.js is a good example because people could look there to see how a complete new functionality IS programmed in .js under Enigma.

Thanks kindly... I always loved Enigma.
