Add ServerListUpdate to DOLConfig & DOLServer

Postby Ephemeral » Wed Dec 26, 2012 2:22 pm

Would this be something that'd actually be accepted in the core? Because it came to mind recently seeing the inevitable person looking for how to add their server to the list I think it'd make some degree of sense to throw it in configuration pre-launch like the database configuration and such; additionally the password would no longer be stored in plaintext anymore (Via windows user account protection?)

I think yes, with server properties to set and enable, disabled by default.

I agree, with 3 SPs (enable, user, password), it'd be easily configurable with DOLConfig (no need a new tab, SP Editor will do the trick).

Disabled by default.

Notice this won't avoid the script to evolve or being maintained by a 3rd party. It is just more convenient.

Yup, third party doesn't exist anymore. It's us for everything... kinda. Yes for SVN.

So what do you think, GameUtils?


Either way, Committed.
