gamespy doesn't collect the players informations but only the main info (the one you see doing "gslist -d 8 IP:port")

                 sv_battleye 0

in PHP you can do this

Code:

$addr = "202.136.100.194";
$port = "2702";
$openwaiting= "";
$member= "";
$maxwait = 60;
$sock = fsockopen(("udp://" . $addr), $port, $errno, $errdesc, $maxwait);
$query = pack("c*", 0xFE, 0xFD, 0x00, 0x04, 0x05, 0x06, 0x07, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF);
fwrite($sock, $query);
@socket_set_timeout($sock, 2);
$reply = "";
if (!$sock) {
    $reply = "";
} else {
    fwrite($sock, $query);
    @socket_set_timeout($sock, 2);
    $reply = @fread($sock, 2048);
    fclose($sock);
    if (strlen($reply) > 100) {
    } else {
       // echo "An Error has poped up please check your setting";
       // exit;
    }
}
if ($reply != '') {
$Infoarray = explode(chr(0), $reply);
$num = $Infoarray[10];
$i5 = 1;
$i1 = 56;
for ($i = 0; $i < $num; $i++) {
    $PlayerID = $i5;
    $Playername = $Infoarray[$i1];
    $i1 = $i1 + 1;
    $Playerclan = $Infoarray[$i1];
    $i1 = $i1 + 1;
    $Playerkills = $Infoarray[$i1];
    $i1 = $i1 + 1;
    $PlayerDeaths = $Infoarray[$i1];

echo "Player ID = ". $PlayerID . "<br>";
echo "Player Name = ". $Playername . "<br>";
echo "Player Clan = ". $Playerclan . "<br>";
echo "Player Kills = ". $Playerkills . "<br>";
echo "Player Deaths = ". $PlayerDeaths . "<br>";
    $i1 = $i1 + 1;
    $i5 = $i5 + 1;
};
};

is there any other way to collect player info programmatically

aluigi · **Posted:** 01 Jul 2009 22:35

you should query each server specifying the "players" query type (like the "0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF" you used in your example) but personally I have never tested the parsing of the players informations because I didn't need them.

while if you want to make the job "automatic" you should parse the list of servers returned by gslist and query each one storing the info in a file or in a database.
I don't know exactly what you mean with "programmatically"
