SGIP - Simple ServerList GIP

[djazz]

As many of you know, I have created the SGIP so players with ease can directly see who is in what servers.

Have a look at it here:

Note that the SGIP on jazzjackrabbit.net is old and outdated, use this new one instead.

This thread is where you can discuss SGIP, come with feature suggestions, etc..

Today, I have upgraded the SGIP, in a maybe strange way. Now does it not only query the servers to get information about players, it also puts a (silent) bot in every online server, that anyone could join (with the exception of ZD/CD servers). Some hosts/admins may not like it, so I will make a blacklist so you can make the bot ignore your IP/port, and the SGIP falls back to normal queries. You can use Banlist.lst (I think) to ban usernames. The bot uses the name [sgip].
The bot does not read or store chat, movement, or any other privacy data. All it does is that it transmits who is spectating, game started/pregame/overtime/stopped state, pings of players, points/roasts and deaths of players. But there is more to come, like blue/red team score, more plus settings.

I can't release the code (I think), as it's using stuff I've gathered from the JJ2+ code.
Finally i figured out how to talk to the latest plus version (from 2010), so i can get even more stuff from the servers. Also, the bot only works on servers with the latest plus version.

Enjoy!

The jjnet one wouldn't be outdated if you updated it!

Good work, though :) If the bot is banned, does it fall back on the old query method?

JJnet is slow, I lost the FTP login and I prefer hosting it myself.

Do not use the /ban-command to ban the bot, as you would ban SGIP from accessing the server and I wouldn't be able to play on the server. Use Banlist.lst to ban the name "[sgip]", as the bot uses that name.
If the bot is not in the server, the sgip fallback to normal query.

I don't have the font you're using for that, can you fix that somehow, or at least use a better replacement than Courier New?

It's using Courier New as default font. Are you using Google Chrome? What OS? Screenshot?

On this page you can change if the bot should join your server or not, you can also give a password to the bot so it can join your passworded servers: http://djazz.mine.nu/apps/sgip/bot/
You can only change settings for the same IP that your server and you are currently at.
