HL2DM Server Tracker

Post by ant_8490 » Tue Jan 21, 2014 4:27 pm

With the addition of newer games/mods, the HL2DM section of Gametracker has become a bit disorganized. Therefore, the ranks of actual HL2DM servers are no longer accurately displayed.

I started working on my own HL2DM tracker (may expand to other games eventually) just to see how Area 51 and other servers within HL2DM stand. You can see a preview of the data at the below link. I am still working on making the page look good (theme, css, jquery effects, graphs, player info, banners), but the base of the data collection process is complete.

Check it out and let me know if you have anything to add.

http://www.area51servers.com/serverlist.php


Data Notes:
- Approximately 400+ servers online in HL2DM at any given time
- Saves server information every 5 minutes
- We plan on saving data from the past month (30 days / 5 minutes = 8,640 queries)
- 400 servers x 8,640 server queries per month = 3,456,000 MySQL data lines.

Can't believe anitalink and bouncyball are still running. Nicely made though.

Sorry for the late reply but you really should expand this to other games; TF2 preferably, to see how the DR server goes with players.

I really like this though, for now just keep it simple.

Not sure if we can... There's so many more TF2 servers that we may start lagging our servers with all the query packets needed. Besides, gametracker's TF2 section seems accurate and not a mess of other games.
