The information includes statistics (uptime, number of clients), configuration (ruleset) and general information (an adminsitrator specifed name). This data is intended to allow clients to display a browser interface, similar to those found in Quake 3 or Tribes 2, from which they can select a server to play on. Note that in the future, each ServerInfo will represent a game world instance, not necessarily a single server, and that a single server might run multiple games. Thus, hostname / IP is a very poor ordering / caching value. Some sort of unique game-instance ID may need to be developed here.
|
retrive the hostname (or dotted-decimal IP) of the server. For multi-server worlds, this will be a name that resolves to a machine capable of accepting the initial LOGIN, and hence should not need special handling. |
|
the round-trip time to the server. The meaning of this when multi-server worlds exist needs to be considered. Verify the accuracy of the ping estimation, since it is currently very poor |
