I also made a post like this in the past, but then regarding stuff like that a server owner could just add a dns entry in the server.cfg , if it matches the ip the person is connecting to it would just save it in the server browser of the client. As in, if ip is no longer valid failsafe would be to check on ip again.
Anyways, tons of people suggested and tons more will follow but when will this be finalized is the question. With steampipe coming too, would it be so much to ask? I think I asked last time for a Christmas present to have this.. but all I got was lousy crates :P -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mart-Jan Reeuwijk Sent: woensdag 10 april 2013 10:41 To: Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] More reliable support for server IP changes I made long ago the suggestion for another tab in the server browser, that shows the servers of the steamgroeps people are member of. Then owners of Steamgroups can set Server IP's in the steamgroups, and clients won't lose their Group servers from their favorites. This also gives room to clients managing their own group and listing servers. >________________________________ > From: Andre Müller <[email protected]> >To: Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list ><[email protected]> >Sent: Tuesday, 9 April 2013, 23:45 >Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] More reliable support for server IP changes > >Look at this post: >http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg49938.html > > >2013/4/9 Andre Müller <[email protected]> > >> Ok, I never heard of this machanism.
