Summary0001732: Display refresh countdown timer instead of failing silently when trying to refresh very fresh servers.
DescriptionCurrently when user tries to refresh a server that was just refreshed the operation fails silently. In case of fast responding servers there might be no visual difference between this and a proper response. Instead of failing Doomseeker should display a countdown timer in place of that server's name, and then refresh that server when countdown reaches zero.
Steps To Reproduce1. Refresh a server.
2. Immediately when refreshing stops try to refresh that server again.

The silent failing was kind of intentional. My logic went along the lines of: if the server won't serve updated information, then we should display the information as it is up to date.

Perhaps a good compromise would be to display the the status bar "N servers could not be refreshed since they are up to date" or something along those lines?

I had numerous situations where I already knew that the server wasn't up to date anymore while Doomseeker didn't. When I want to refresh such server I either need to spam the refresh option from context menu or wait an unspecified amount of time. I think that at least the context menu option should activate the refresh timer. The "arrows" button can work as it works now.

Yea, also if server refresh failed DS can refuse to update it for this reason if you spam refreshing of the server in quick manner, so I support.

I've modified the behavior for the "NO RESPONSE" servers a bit so that the refresh lock interval is much shorter for them. I think this already helps tremendously, especially with the problem that I've been having personally, but I'm still considering implementing the countdown timer as well.

I'm resolving this as "fixed". After some consideration I decided that such timer isn't necessary, as my main issue was with inability to quickly refresh servers that are visible as "<NO RESPONSE>".
