After getting all the input, I have made the latest update: http://developer.wz2100.net/ticket/290 We need to get it correct the first time. Right now, we only check on the version string. All the other stuff we send isn't used. I am also not sure about the time period to wait before we auto kick someone. Right now, it is set to 7secs. Logic is, player joins. Host sends version request query. If Host don't get response within 7 secs, then we auto-kick. If wrong version string, we auto-kick. If all is fine, you won't notice anything. _______________________________________________ Warzone-dev mailing list Warzone-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/warzone-dev
