Is there somewhere where I can get the specs for the server query protocol? I wish to query a server via PHP, in order to return things such as Player Count, Current Map, Server Name, and a list of Players in-game.
If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be excellent. Thanks!

RE: Server Query Protocol?
You should be able to get everything you need here:

One thing I just discovered is that the huffman package actually has a PHP file in it that takes care of all the Huffman coding for you so it's nice and easy to implement instead of having to spend hours making your own table/functions!
If you run into any more possible problems I should be able to help among others here.

Thanks a bunch. :)
RE: Server Query Protocol?
When I last took a look at it, the PHP function had a couple of bugs in terms of handling of certain datagrams...though it's been so long that I can't for the life of me remember what they were.Watermelon wrote: You should be able to get everything you need here:

Here is my implementation of the huffman encoder/decoder in Python. It was based off the PHP version and is heavily commented, so just compare the two and see if the PHP version leaves anything out:

The only limit to my freedom is the inevitable closure of the
universe, as inevitable as your own last breath. And yet,
there remains time to create, to create, and escape.
Escape will make me God.

It would be very nice to remove huffman encoding from all launcher (server and master) protocols at all
It is completely useless and only overburden various launcher implementations

Agreed. From what I've seen, the zandronum huffman frequency tree isn't even particularly well optimized for zandronum traffic.bond wrote: It would be very nice to remove huffman encoding from all launcher (server and master) protocols at all
