Dedicated server for TMF, version 2008-07-01 beta

[xbx]

New Trackamania Server beta:

You can download it from
http://files2.trackmaniaforever.com/Tra ... -07-01.zip
or
http://files2.trackmaniaforever.com/Tra ... -07-01.tgz

(both contain the same files, and windows and linux executable.)

Changes:

• a relay can now join a server with both player and spectator password.
• CurrentChallengeInfo now fully filled-in on the relay.
• it is now possible to run a relay on internet mode that relays a lan server. (just use the lan ip for the command line /join=192.168....:port)
• new GetMainServerPlayerInfo() that returns the player info of the main server (or itfself if this is not a relay server)
• to help compatibility with old scripts, the server tries to allocate the PlayerId '0' to the main server. (beware: on a relay server, the server's id still won't be 0)
• the PlayerId of the server is now available with GetSystemInfo()
• a few issues with ladder limits access verification. (even the guests cannot connect if they don't have correct ladder points)
• chat command "/serverlogin" gives the login of the server.
• the number of spectators can be 0
• somewhat better error messages
• "Internal server error" connection problem introduced with previous beta on some linuxes should be fixed.

also the error failure of the relayserver is edited now it keeps on contacting the master server and game server and doesnt give a press a key error

go go xbx nice addition as always

[BLaHiTiS]

no more internal server error

New Trackamania Server beta:

It appears you forgot to rebuild the ListMethods.html file, as it doesn't contain the new GetMainServerPlayerInfo() method nor the corrections I submitted last month, even though the ListMethod.php script shows they're in the new dedicated now. Maybe you can quickly update the List file in the downloads?

Changes:
[*] to help compatibility with old scripts, the server tries to allocate the PlayerId '0' to the main server. (beware: on a relay server, the server's id still won't be 0)
[*] the PlayerId of the server is now available with GetSystemInfo()

Thanks.

[*] chat command "/serverlogin" gives the login of the server.

Isn't that a strange design decision? No dedicated version ever recognized chat commands, they all left that to external controllers, and now it suddenly responds to this one? What value does that add?
Or were there hidden chat commands in previous dedicateds too?

For reference, I posted the up-to-date ListMethods here.

I'll update it for next release, sorry.

There already was a "/version" (but I didn't think it was hidden..)

I just got annoyed that there was no way to know from the ui what the login was...
maybe I should use a name less subject to collisions..

I never tried /version ^^
Btw /serverlogin sems ok, no script should try to use the same except to return the same thing

I didn't know about that one either.

Okay, well I don't have a real issue with it, there are no collisions with XAseco for either command.
