Get help for current game informations in dedicated places

illwieckz commented 10 years ago

Many games have incomplete gametypes structure here: https://github.com/XQF/xqf/blob/master/src/game.c#L1003

TODO: Write questions in forums to get gametype strings associated with gametype numbers.

TODO: get better master server list, protocol numbers etc.

It is a good idea to do it at the same time of #62

We need gametype strings from:

Open Arena, http://openarena.ws/board/
Wolf: ET, ET: Legacy, http://dev.etlegacy.com/projects/etlegacy/boards/1
Turtle Arena, ask ZTM
World of Padman, http://worldofpadman.net/forum/
Urban Terror, http://www.urbanterror.info/forums/
Jedi Academy

Other question to ask to Wolf:ET guys: what means “^.!.” at the beginning of a server name string?

Turtle Arena uses the same gametypes as Q3A. Doesn't have Harvester (the last gametype in array though). it's caused by ioq3 sending gamename Quake3Arena in info response (which is required by dpmaster protocol) and gamename baseq3 in status response. Turtle Arena has the same issue. gamename TurtleArena, even though the game directory is base.

looks like qstat doesn't report both gamename keys. "quakestat -R -q3s phobos.ioquake.org"

for example:

quakestat -R -q3s phobos.ioquake.org
ADDRESS           PLAYERS      MAP   RESPONSE TIME    NAME
phobos.ioquake.org     4/16   q3dm17    166 / 0            phobos.ioquake.org ioquake3 official

Here you go.

Gametype, Name, Status 0, Single player, unused 1, Cooperative, unused 2, Objective, standard 3, Stopwatch, standard 4, Campaign, standard 5, Last Man Standing, standard 6, Map Voting, de facto standard 7, Team Death Match, only a few mods

I am not sure about gametype 7 since I know of only one mod that uses it - Silent mod - for team death match, but you are pretty much safe in using the first six gametypes for all mods (only gt 6 was adopted by the community and the rest are inbuilt).
