Title: build 10 sererlist
Post by: Excalibur on May 01, 2004, 06:09:11 PM

hey sometimes when i go to play and i hit refresh i only get 1-2 servers (even when i click update) but then others times i hit refresh and i get 7 servers. is this a build 10 prob or is it just that some servers dont ping back at the time i hit refresh?

Well, the server pings aren't done with a very reliable method.  If the packet gets dropped, you don't see it at all.  I need to improve it so it re-pings the servers and whatnot.

It is and it isn't. For now just slam the refresh button a few times. :)

Ok I can hit refresh 500,000 times I still get 6 servers and none of the graffiti servers can someone post the ip's for the pub ones so I can join that way.

I wish people would play on the other servers -- their connection seems more stable.

probs is but you have to play were others are playing paintball solo is kinda boring...unless you make it so if the server is emtpy but 1 guy the server auto loads bots like 5 to a team so you can at least play with bots. when you wait.

I have a question about having a friend join in my game. What do you type in the concle to join a server? Just the IP address?

no you have to type "connect ####.##.###.#:#####" that will connect you and if you have a pass on it then i type "set password ####"  but there might be a easer way for that. but that dont have much to do with my post about the prob i was having with the build 10 server list.

If it's on a LAN, it should show up in the serverlist automatically when you hit refresh, if not, you have to manually connect through the console (as Excalibur described).  You can copy the ip from windows and paste it in the console, so it's not too bad.  Also, you can just start | run "c:\paintball2\paintball2 +connect <ip>"

Excaliber, topics arnt ment for just one problem. This topic has to do with the servers so instead of posting a new topic, I just stuck it in here.

Thanks, both of you, for the help.
