However when I try to spawn it in another thread it runs the

It is probably terminating the child threads when the main one
ends. Might help to have the main wait until the child dies too.
I tried putting an infinite loop inside main() as well, didn't
seem to help. I'm guessing there's probably a better way to make
the main thread wait? I'm pretty new to threads and whatnot.
But why are you putting it in a thread anyway? If the main is
doing nothing than just waiting, might as well just keep the
logic in there.
It'll be doing other things, this is just the first thing I've
implemented.
