Okay so we have a bof, can we get it to redirect IP (instruction pointer) to something else?

really suitable for a newer!
Thanks for this very nice challenge! I learned a lot!
Took me an entire day! I was looking ebx which I correctly overrided with the win address. That's not the crux of solving this and I wasted time wondering why. After almost a day, it dawned on me to also look at the buff visualisation and realised I haven't overflowed enough to reach the return address. And last but not least, I was wondering why gdb run told me that flag.txt was not found and then realised I need to redurect my python exploit file into the server version because the flag file is on the server, not locally.
why the hell would python3 print c2's ,what are this c2's
Cool, now I feel like python2 is better than 3
