Improve the server browser #85

Open Warfork opened 2 years ago

catman1900#0420 | The server browser isn't really robust enough for that, it's really hard to find the game type you want with the settings you want just by looking |   |   |

Zeb — is there a possibility when browsing server list and you want to preview who is in the server can it be done through the server browser? Would like to know who is actually in the server without actually joining

scoot — based on the existence of things like http://livesow.net/livefork/ , it seems possible to do in game

@Zeb i did some poking around. if you set developer to 1 and then run getstatus [server address:port] it'll print out a player list in the console

Zeb — cool thanks was also wondering if it would be possibility if you hovered your mouse over the server of interest and it would pop up a mini window showing players in game scores and things like that?

WatchDog#9550 Colored Server Names for more style and identification !

mike (Cocaine Diesel) people used to do it all the time

but vic killed it because librocket couldn't handle it lol

@mike (Cocaine Diesel) but vic killed it because librocket couldn't handle it lol

Caine — what happened? [11:42 AM] would it lag the browser?

mike (Cocaine Diesel) — yea

Caine — darn

mike (Cocaine Diesel) — i mean we never got to see it

but librocket had especially terrible perf at the time

vic ended up fixing some shit

Caine i wonder if it would be fine now

mike (Cocaine Diesel) — probably

WatchDog#9550 | - Show played map in serverbrowser |   |   |  

WatchDog#9550 | - Checkbox to Filter out empy servers and +100 ping servers |   |   |   WatchDog#9550 | - Serverbrower search feature for maps available on servers and playernames active on all servers |   |   |  

vndl#0007 cant see option to filter out empty servers or some gametypes, is it somewhere? seems like obvious feature      
Azagedon#6073 Can the map selector please be twice as long and wide please? It's a bit like painting a hallway through a letter box. Please and thank you!      
igracsimon#6339 The map selector could also use a search function or a favorites function where you can mark maps with a star or a heart or somethingEdit: Would be great if that favorites function would carry over into vote map on servers as well so they're easier to find      
Gordon#1617 How about a text input in the Servers list to allow filtering? ...come to think of it, how about for everything with a name, such as Maps?      
donut#4487 | be able to sort by multiple things at once, like gametype and ping |   |   |   -- | -- | -- | -- | -- timma#7296 | @caine If you go for that all-in customizable warfork experience please make it really clear to distinguish between a normal server and some modded one with features you will only find on that one. Otherwise new players probably wont even get the game to know because they just start the game and join one random server with players on it that might be highly modded and has nothing to do with the original game |   |   |   -- | -- | -- | -- | --

igracsimon#6339 | yea i do lol but and i find them in the browser i just have a TON of maps that i don't play like race maps i played once and stuff so it would be convenient to favorite maps so i can find them when making a private server or when i vote for a different map on a server. Some race maps also don't have memrable names and it's just a bunch or random letters and numbers. How am i supposed to memorize those names? |   |   |   -- | -- | -- | -- | --

Azagedon#6073 | some kind of sort function would be nice yeah, because ive got tons of custom maps would be nice to separate them from the original ones some how |   |   |   -- | -- | -- | -- | -- Sunshine Recorder#8734 "Also the map preview picture or thumbnail is quite small"
