PTL? What is that?

March 18, 2016 9:46:51 PM from Galactic Civilizations III ForumsGalactic Civilizations III Forums

If I bring up the FPS HUD there are three entries that I don't understand:

  1. PTL Updates/sec
  2. PTL Scripts Updated
  3. PTL Scripts Rendered

I've searched high and low and still don't know what the heck 'PTL' stands for.

Will some kind soul please explain this to me?

TIA,

Richard

Cute

How about a real answer? Maybe it's obvious and I'm missing something simple...

 

Thanks,

Richard

Thanks for the answer.  I was going through possibilities over and over in my head and none of them were even close to being closer than the guesses already posted.  Now, I can go back to my regularly scheduled obsessive behaviors and ruminations.

I was somewhat disappointed in the answer as well
