Script?

Are there any IRC (or other types) of scripts that can monitor a halo server ? Like report the matches, current gamteype, players etc...

Thanx, though, I didn't mean to upset the delicate ballance.

I was thinking more of like an IRC bot type thing. They had these for quake...

Like you type in the trigger
!q3 62.212.xxx.xxx:27xx0

And it would report back with stuff like

Q3CTF(baseq3) on q3wcp9 Players:7/14 (0:ned.sol4r) Red caps:0 v 0:Blue caps (0:ned.nymavs,0:ned.wyzer,0:ned.Anoniempje,0:ned.bl44t) (32nd.teqno,*ft*sErAph) Time left:Waiting for Players

no irc bot, but for example, http://www.halomods.com/halo_ds.php

it needs to be a bot, as hunterXI said. it can be scripted but it would take a long time to make and an extremly good mIRC scripter to do it.

That would work great as well. What program generates that page? How often is it updated?

HunterXI · Post by **HunterXI** » Tue Mar 23, 2004 4:01 pm

it doesn't work like that, the page just has variables that get updated when you load the page.

Saber · Post by **Saber** » Tue Mar 23, 2004 4:10 pm

And what program updates these variables...?

EqUiNoX · Post by **EqUiNoX** » Tue Mar 23, 2004 4:11 pm

the script it's self. it checks every second to see if the server has changes and then reports back to the channel...

Saber · Post by **Saber** » Tue Mar 23, 2004 4:12 pm

Ok...and this can be obtained..where?

HunterXI · Post by **HunterXI** » Tue Mar 23, 2004 8:00 pm

I dont know... just get HSQT and look in the readme...

Saber · Post by **Saber** » Tue Mar 23, 2004 10:47 pm

There's nothing in that readme related to an IRC type bot or to automatically generating a page like the one at Halomods...

HunterXI · Post by **HunterXI** » Tue Mar 23, 2004 11:32 pm

well, I dont know then... maybe theres some commands in the DS itself that broadcast the information, or perhaps you have to ping the server on a specific port? I dont know, I'm just specualting...

Saber · Post by **Saber** » Tue Mar 23, 2004 11:50 pm

IRC Feature: Yeah, but that would be broadcasting. I'm talking on request (preferrably with a trigger)

Page feature: Im not understanding how this works at all wihtout manually exporting the html file every time you want to update it....

Are there no tutorials on this?
