Just wanting to know if anyone is aware of a way to query the status of a server remotely?
I was connecting directly to the port to see if it was 'online', but that results in in-game messages of 'new player connecting' which gets annoying.
Be nice to find a way to just check if the server is online and responding with out having to trigger that in-game message when hitting up the TCP port.

Re: [EL] Query Server Status
Connecting to the port may have blocked it from being used by the server/clients. Depending on what info is desired, there may be an option or two. I'll follow up with you via a reply to your e-mail.

When in an MP game, I always found it useful to know when somebody was checking the server. Even when they decided not to log on.
