Official BF2 Event 100 player PRSpy Test Event

[R-DEV]Mats391 · 09-23-2017, 05:22 AM

We have thought up a way to get all 100 players to show in PRSpy and the server browser. For now we tested it successfully with bots, but now need your help to test it with real players!

For this Area94 helps us host these changes. If you want to help, join us on their server tonight at 20:00 PRT.

guys, you have the mandatory mumble with all 100 players 99.98% of time and it's sources. just offload the players query from the actual server to mumble server. i've suggested that like 3 year ago

Thanks for trying, and here's hoping you won't give up.

Sirfstar's idea sounds good... even though, I'm not certain, but perhaps once in a while there might be a discrepancy between PR and Mumble... even if that were to happen, surely most of the time (the majority of the time) querying Mumble would give you a good list from which to post on PRSpy? Would be better than the 64-player list we have now, no?

Mumble isn't an option for various reasons. mumble doesn't have score information and isn't always 100% accurate I think when it comes to names.

The issue was something really stupid. Some unexpected whitespace from one of the settings queried from the game. We had a very good working proof of concept.

While we could add it to mumble, but adding it as an extra independent process was much less work.
