UDP Watchdog Timeout with DayZ servers

[overra]

I've tried querying both DayZ standalone and mod servers but I keep getting the UDP Watchdog Timeout error.

Here's the code:

var Gamedig = require('gamedig');
Gamedig.debug = true;
Gamedig.query({type: 'dayz', host: '199.189.85.77'}, function () { console.log(arguments) })

And the output:

$ node index.js                                                        
199.189.85.77:2302 UDP--> ffffffff54536f7572636520456e67696e6520517565727900
{ '0': 
   { error: 'UDP Watchdog Timeout',
     query: 
      { host: '199.189.85.77',
        address: '199.189.85.77',
        port: 2302,
        port_query: 2302,
        type: 'dayz',
        pretty: 'DayZ' } } }

It seems that dayz uses a query port that is different from its game port, and it can't easily be calculated on the fly. I've found that often, the query port is the game port PLUS 24714 or 24715 (meaning that it will be 27016 or 27017 when using the default 2302 game port).

You can pass in this query port with the port_query request parameter.

I've just pushed an update that will attempt 27016 for dayz by default.
