Starmade | Serverlist ping-check only trying TCP
Closed, FinishedPublic
Actions

Description

When checking if a server has a compatible version/is online with the serverlist, the StarMade only tries to connect using TCP. Any UDP server, even if announced, thus will never show up on the list, as they don't respond to TCP requests.

To reproduce:

  1. set USE_UDP to "true" in the server.cfg and enter the necessary data to announce the server to the serverlist.
  2. start the server
  3. open the serverlist in a separate client and search for the server.

Hmm, can't even seem to get a TCP server to announce properly... Might be a port forwarding issue on my end.

Therefore I can't confirm that I fixed this properly, but there should be a stack trace if it's still not working, I'll need that please.

Serverlist requires to have the server use "bind ip" (config) to exactly match the server list entry.

So if you for example host the server in LAN under 192.168.* and add your external IP to the list, it wont get listed,
even if the serverlist reaches the server, it thinks you are spoofing or duplicating an entry, by rerouting your alive check to a different server.

This is to prevent people from having multiple entries leading to one physical server.
