I would rather implement a player list request message in the netcode. Would cause less overhead than using HTTP and would keep the clients codebase slimmer (on the expense of a little more code in TMWServ, but it would be wise to keep the web frontend stuff separated from the game code).

Please do not send me any inquiries regarding player accounts on TMW.


You might have heard a certain rumor about me. This rumor is completely false. You might also have heard the other rumor about me. This rumor is 100% accurate.

I'd rather not hardcode URLs into the client. Having the server provide it is an option, but using the netcode as described by Crush would be better IMO.

Is there any hope to have the killstats window reconsidered for main. Love this feature.

:arrow: :lol: Well, I thought about parsing some html would be more ugly but quicker and following the first behaviour provided by Qoal.

I you all agree about adding an interface for that, you have my support!
As for myself, I would even try some caching system, server side speaking...

N.B. : Speaking about Qoal's features, I can see that killing stats are quite appreciated!

Regards.
