## Common questions

### How is TwitchMiner configured?

It is configured entirely through TCPM_* environment variables instead of editing run.py. The project includes an .env.example for reference.

### What data should I mount in a Docker setup?

Mount one data folder controlled by TCPM_DATA_DIR. It stores cookies, the drops database, logs, and analytics.

### If a drop claim fails, will it keep retrying?

No, each drop is claimed only once. Attempts are stored in a small per-account database, so a failing claim is not retried or re-notified.

### What happens with drops for a game where the account is not connected?

Those drops are skipped. It issues a warning once a day that includes a countdown to the end of the campaign.
