3. Open `dlls.txt` in the game folder and add a line `ZepSense.dll`.
4. Start the game fully (a `/reload` is not enough the first time the DLL is added).
5. Type `/ob debug`. It should say the DLL function is present and show raw transport data when transports are in range.
5. Check it worked: open the window (`/ob` or the minimap icon). If the top-right corner says **"no DLL: estimates only"**, the DLL is not loaded (see [Troubleshooting](#troubleshooting)). If that note is absent, everything is working. There is nothing else to set up: the timers correct themselves each time you see a transport dock.
The DLL only reads transport positions that the client has already loaded; it does not send anything anywhere. Its source is `ZepSense_src/ZepSense_v5.c` (built with `i686-w64-mingw32-gcc -O2 -shared -static-libgcc -Wl,--kill-at -s`). As with any client DLL, use it at your own risk and check your server's rules.
