Concerning periodic.c; I don't really understand how it works, but how would it be possible for it not to send a player/frequency the periodic reward packet if the reward returns 0 points? Subgame never announced the reward when it was 0, so it's really a nuisanced.

The way it works right now is that it sends one packet containing the periodic reward values for all frequencies as 4 repeating bytes.

This patch should do it, but I haven't tested

Thanks D1st0rt, I'll give it a shot and see how it goes.

Edit: Yep, it works as hoped it would.
