Querying server
« on: March 22, 2007, 05:27:56 pm »
Hi,
I'd like to make my own server list for Australian servers, as there are some that don't always turn up in the server browser. Is there a way I can directly query soldat servers using PHP or Python?

Thanks in Advance

The new version of Soldat, 1.4, has a completely new lobby server that fixes the problems of there being "some that don't always turn up in the server browser."

There is a way to query servers directly (look in the stickies and the other parts of the Developer's Corner, but this won't help you create a list.

I suggest you wait until 1.4 is out to see if what you wanted to do is really necessary.  The new lobby has been written from scratch intentionally to fix these kinds of problems.

I also actually just made this code snippet today, to query servers' ASE port using PHP

additions/changes are still being made by me and various people, so keep your eye on it
