Yeah, I actually noticed that too just yesterday. We'll take care of that.

Also had this issue before. Usually, just restarting it does well.

This one was quite difficult. The problem occurred only when the server cache file existed on the hard drive but was empty. Anyway, this commit should fix it.

I did a few adjusts to the query speed and the issue persists, relevant lines of the log:

[00:07:55] Error: Master server for Zandronum: Could not fetch a new server list from the master because not enough time has past.
[00:08:05] Error: Master server for Zandronum: Connection timeout (66.228.33.44:15300).
[00:08:05] Reloading master server results from cache for Zandronum!


Settings used were the following:

Number of tries: 3
Delay between tries: 500

Batch size: 250
Batch delay: 1

Can you go to "%APPDATA%/.doomseeker" directory and upload the "Zandronum" file that you find there? If you're using portable version this file will be located in ".doomseeker" directory directly in the program dir.

These four commits improve master server refresh process and should fix the problem:

Working, I suggest a counter to notice the user of what is happening (status bar seems to be a proper place already). I suggest something like this:

Error: Master server for Zandronum: You are querying too fast, please wait <seconds remaining> seconds.

Shrinking the line a bit as above is suggested to be sure that people with smaller monitors will see the whole message; consider this counter a minor thing. But hey, seeing this bug fixed is a huge improvement already. Thank you!
