Hey Undef.
I have a question because im driving myself crazy lol.

The neighborhood. is the only way the make it work if the servers are on the same hosting computer? cause i cant make it work with servers on other pc's.
For example i want to display both R602 servers with one hosted by myself on my PC and the other by Klompie on his PC.

Looking forward to ur reply

Regards ADHD

Nope, all the dedicated server can exist on different hosts.

cause i cant make it work with servers on other pc's.
For example i want to display both R602 servers with one hosted by myself on my PC and the other by Klompie on his PC.

See the description inside of the server_neighborhood.xml at <storing_path>, there is a example with the FTP-Protocol, which can store the current dedicated server info on a remote host.

Then you also need to edit each <server_neighbor><path> entry at <server_accounts>, also documented with a FTP example.

Hey Undef.

Thnx for the quick reply! great.

I dont have a ftp protocol as everything is hosted on my own pc.
so i created a map in wich the script can write the "Servername"_serverneigbor.xml
the problem now still exists that somehow it doesnt read other servers.
could the problem be that on the other serverhosts the option in PHP: "allow_url_fopen" is "off"?
or is it maybe a port i need to open to read the servers?

with greetings ^^ ADHD

hello,
I wanted to change the location of the widget like this:

<rounds>
<enabled> true </ enabled> <- Set to 'false' to hide the Widget or 'true' to display ->
<pos_x> -30.1 </ pos_x>
<pos_y> -47.5 </ pos_y>
</ rounds>

but it does not appear on the screen.
Do you have any idea why?
sorry for my english
thank you in advance

I wanted to change the location of the widget like this:

Code: Select all

<rounds>
<enabled> true </ enabled> <- Set to 'false' to hide the Widget or 'true' to display ->
<pos_x> -30.1 </ pos_x>
<pos_y> -47.5 </ pos_y>
</ rounds>

but it does not appear on the screen.

I guess the spaces before and after -47.5 at <pos_y> are not in your xml? Otherwise remove the spaces.

On the other hand: -47.5 is very near at the bottom of the screen (-48 is max.), place it a little bit higher and you should see it.

[zastas]

thank you for your response
no there is no space before and after
here's where I would put it:

I'm a bit lost with the x and y
and this is the first time I have depacer widget
thank you for all
cordially

[zastas]

it is my understanding that
I had removed the - before the x and y values
sorry to have bored with my silly questions
thank you for all

Hello
Sorry in advance for my english (I'm french).

I just downloaded the plugin but I can not configure it.

Despite the joints in the dosier zip files, I do not understand how to do it.

On my server, I would just put a link to another server in my team.

I'm lost.

A bit of help please.

Thank you in advance.

Good day.

Hello
I just downloaded the plugin but I can not configure it. [...] I do not understand how to do it.

I do not know what to change or what to put.

I do not need to make sense here: "<storing_path> / tmp / serverneighbors / </ storing_path>".

To better understand:
I have a dedicated server on my PC (Cool and Speed ​​Fist Level: ManiaPlanet :/ / # join = @ CoolCircuitXRM TMStadium).
My friend also a dedicated server on your PC (Cool and Speed ​​Next Level 50-90K: ManiaPlanet :/ / # join = @ cool_server_and_speed TMStadium)

I would affichier its server on mine and my server on his own.

For this situation you need a server which are accessible from you and your friend over FTP. The you need to setup

Code: Select all

<storing_path>ftp://username:password@ftp.example.com/serverneighbors/</storing_path>

on your and your friends server_neighborhood.xml.

If the server (where the Plugin store over FTP the datafiles) is accessible over HTTP, the you need to setup

Code: Select all

	<server_accounts>

		<server_neighbor>
			<path>http://www.example.com/serverneighbors/coolcircuitxrm_serverinfo.xml</path>
			<enable>true</enable>						
			<force_spectator>false</force_spectator>		
		</server_neighbor>

		<server_neighbor>
			<path>http://www.example.com/serverneighbors/cool_server_and_speed_serverinfo.xml</path>
			<enable>true</enable>						
			<force_spectator>false</force_spectator>		
		</server_neighbor>

	</server_accounts>

If the server is only accessible over FTP, then you need to setup:

Code: Select all

	<server_accounts>

		<server_neighbor>
			<path>http://ftp://username:password@ftp.example.com/serverneighbors/coolcircuitxrm_serverinfo.xml</path>
			<enable>true</enable>						
			<force_spectator>false</force_spectator>		
		</server_neighbor>

		<server_neighbor>
			<path>http://ftp://username:password@ftp.example.com/serverneighbors/cool_server_and_speed_serverinfo.xml</path>
			<enable>true</enable>						
			<force_spectator>false</force_spectator>		
		</server_neighbor>

	</server_accounts>

Thank you for the answer.

But where I find the "cool_server_and_speed_serverinfo.xml" or "coolcircuitxrm_serverinfo.xml" files ?

Should I create?
If yes, how?

Thank you for the answer.

But where I find the "cool_server_and_speed_serverinfo.xml" or "coolcircuitxrm_serverinfo.xml" files ?

These files are created by the plugin direct after start, you do not need to create them.

[LilyFlow]

Sorry but I think I must have a problem.

I do not understand.

If the plugin is poorly configured, it does not work.
And if it does not work, how the xml file can be created there.

I have my dedicated server.
I Xaseco2 with all the widgets that appear.

I downloaded and unzipped the plugin Neighborhood in Server files XAseco.
I modified the plugin.xml adding: "<plugin> plugin.server_neighborhood.php </ plugin>"
Xaseco seem to work correctly.

There is not a step by step tutorial to put this plugin in place?

Thank you again for your help.

If the plugin is poorly configured, it does not work.
And if it does not work, how the xml file can be created there.

Because the plugin can't work correct, because it needs a place to store the information from the server somewhere: <storing_path> (write access)

Also the plugin needs to know where to get these files from (from the wanted neighbors): <server_accounts><server_neighbor><path> (read access)

There is not a step by step tutorial to put this plugin in place?

There is the "Server-Neighborhood - Configuration Examples.pdf" inside of the ZIP, that should make clear how to setup the server_neighborhood.xml.
