Server-website scripting

M8DNephelim · Post by **M8DNephelim** » Tue Mar 16, 2004 3:45 am

Hi!

I am a poor scripter and we got 3 ET Pro servers running at M8D International. This is the prob I have:
I want a script that shows wich players are on the servers directly from the website and IF it´s possible a link for direct connect to the server(s)...
I been searching the web and found some scripts in use but no code.
If anyone knows anything about this plz help me out here.

thx!

On our website www.enemyterritory.dk we have a similar service. We extract the information via a php script. Here is some of the code to give you an idea of how its done:

Code: Select all

$serverstreng = "";
$serverforbindelse = @fsockopen&#40;"udp&#58;//" .$ServerIp , $ServerPort ,  $errno, $errstr&#41;;
$fwrite = @fwrite&#40;$serverforbindelse, "ÿÿÿÿgetstatus"&#41;;
$continue = true;
while &#40;$continue&#41; &#123;
  $serverstreng .= @fgetc&#40;$serverforbindelse&#41;;
  $status = socket_get_status&#40;$serverforbindelse&#41;;
  $continue = $status&#91;"unread_bytes"&#93;;
&#125;
$fclose = @fclose&#40;$fp&#41;;
$result_array = explode &#40;"\n", $serverstreng&#41;;
$status_array = explode &#40;"\\", $result_array&#91;1&#93;&#41;;

I just discovered that the new et pro 2.1.14 does not give the same information in the server string as expected/earlier.

eg you cant see which players are on which team!

See example http://www.poohunter.de/index.php?page= ... port=27600

Code: Select all

Is this intentionaly Bani ??

ohh btw i was also impressed with the layout of [pH*Deus] contribution.

M8DNephelim · Post by **M8DNephelim** » Tue Mar 16, 2004 4:59 am

ahh...

in that case this script would be without use...
and yup - it is a good design!

Vio · Post by **Vio** » Tue Mar 16, 2004 5:21 am

I noticed that too. This is what bani said about it.
<Vio> is players_allies etc excluded in the new etpro ?
<Vio> i dont see it in serverinfo
<[av]bani> yes, because it causes server crashes

Deus · Post by **Deus** » Tue Mar 16, 2004 5:31 am

Ok, then I have to do a redesign :/
As I see there is a list of members online in the serverstatusmessage, but we cannot make difference what team they are in. So if u only need a list of players this is no problem, but you can not see what team they are in...

sry for that, didn't get the fact that with 2.1 and up this wont work...

Is this intentionaly Bani ??.

yes. the server status is limited to 1022 chars and if you go over that, the server crashes (stock etmain bug). lots of servers crash because Players_Axis and Players_Allies can easily push the server status over 1022 chars. it's removed from etpro 2.1 for that reason. it's possible to put some other system in, but old Players_Axis and Players_Allies will not return.

maybe I can put "Players" in as a 64 char string? 0 = no player, 1 = axis, 2 = allies, 3 = spectator

so it would look eg like \Players\11212202133

That would be great, since it would also make it easy to tell if a server is really full or if some people are in reserved slots (since the reserved slots are always the first $sv_privateclients slots).

Does that mean you'll be tweaking the player list format as well, so one can connect player to slot number? Currently it just returns "score ping name", since the old format would just renumerate all the players starting at 0, and use the resulting numbers for Players_(Allies|Axis).

cant change the player list format unfortunately...

What about using a bitmask for each ?

shorten the cvarnames:
p_ax
p_al
and use a bitmask
0 = not on the team, 1 = on the team.
a phpscript can then split them into the information that is needed.
There is no need to announce the specing players, because if a player isnt on either ax or al he must be a spec.

f.E.:
Player 1 = Axis (1)(0)
Player 2 = Axis (1)(0)
Player 3 = Allies (0)(1)
Player 4 = Axis (1)(0)
Player 5 = Allies (0)(1)
Player 6 = allies (0)(1)

Then we have Ax:
1011

ans Al:
110100

what will be for ax
11
and for al
52

so it would look like...\p_ax\11\p_al\52\...

I know this has nothing to do with competition, and its not useful for any kind of gameplay, just for the guys who want to display their servers on their homepage.

Bah. Not really necessary, though, now that I think about it a bit more.
