game tracker site
how do the sites like game tracker/game monitor work??
(i.e how they get the info about servers) |
Re: game tracker site
Though I've never actually investigated the process, I would imagine that they simply reverse-engineered the protocol for getting a server listing that the game itself employs, by sniffing the game's connections using something like Wireshark.
Once they have a list of servers, a similar process is used for getting player and map information, except from the servers themselves. |

See the Implementations section of the page that YamiKaitou linked.

Yep, I would imagine they actually have an application to do it, not PHP. The application then re-populates a database. That's much easier since PHP is more intensive for longer running queries.
How it works is, the Server Queries return a list of ips, then you query each one yourself. Hence why an application is optimal for this. |
