Hello there.

 

Is there anyone here who knows how they are able to show the server capacity from an mmo game into a site?

Like this one: http://www.rev6.com/servercapacity/

 

I have tried to figure it out for a long time now but i can't unerstand it :/

 

And also really nice forum, good work :)

An easy way of doing it would be to expose an API on the servers and then fetch information from that file routinely. PHP.net does something similar for checking the status of their mirrors. If you go to something like http://dk.php.net/mirror-info you'll see that it gives various information. This is just downloaded once in a while and can then be seen from an admin panel listing all mirrors and their statuses.

 

See this: http://svn.php.net/viewvc/web/php/trunk/mirror-info.php?view=markup

 

You would want to cache the information locally if you have many mirrors though. This prevents you from having real time updates, however.

I found this http://www.elitepvpers.de/forum/foreign-sro-hacks-bots-cheats-exploits/405100-all-sro-generic-server-stats.html#post3721054 that shows the stats, but i have no idea how it's made but it works. But is it able to make this able for a website?

 

I saw that the ini file updates, but it looks ugly to post on a site as it is.
