Use the sorted order and number number field in sims.lua to calculate ports on startup.

Soooo -

sim number = 0

if first sim in [type] then

if [number] then sim number = [number]

HTTP = sim number x 2, UDP = sim number x 2 + 1

sim number ++

[code=Lua]

sims = -- Note these are .shini / tmux tab short names.

{

{["type"] = "Important"; "Welcome", "Sandbox", "Shops"},

{["type"] = "Rentals"; "Karen", "Bob"},

{["type"] = "Freebies"; "Gifts", "Free"},

{["type"] = "unsorted"; "New"}, -- NOTE - this is where new ones go to by default.

{["type"] = "Water"; ["number"] = 90; "Water0", "Water1", "Water2", "Water3", "Water4"},

{["type"] = "Heavies"; ["number"] = 70; "DP", "ARSE"},

}
