[QStat-devx] Re: AAO Server query help
|
From: Steve J. <st...@qs...> - 2004-10-04 21:01:19

I see the problem. The GS protocol allows arbitrary per-player data. This
makes sense given that GS protocol is game agnostic (designed to work with any
game). However, qstat did not anticipate this. QStat has a fixed set of
per-player data (frags, score, team, etc) and only looks for certain per-player
data keys (frags_, ping_, team_, etc). Anything qstat does not recognize
becomes server rule data. I've never seen the keys in your example below and
they go far beyond what would be considered a "common" key like frags_. What
are roe_ and kia_ ??
The hack solution is to add support for these keys and map them to existing
player data fields. This would be awkward since roe_ might be mapped to
$(SHIP) or something equally incongruous.
The real solution is to add support for arbitrary player keys; a list of key,
value pairs. This is analogus to the server rules, but for each player. The
info could be accessed in the player template with something like $(INFO:key).
Maybe one of the qstat programmers will like the idea and take it on for the
next release. Steven? Ludwig?
I see the new GS protocol format finally removes the redudant data (frags_,
ping_, etc were repeated for each player). And it may remove the parsing
ambiguity when players have / in their name. Looks like a good thing. Is the
same query port used for the new protocol?
Your original message stated that we should be able to support GS master
servers. Did you mean to say GS game servers?
