Title: Suggestion: New Feature for Announce Plugin
Post by: habi2 on Aug 14, 2024, 07:21 AM
I had this idea two years ago.
Now a vcmp server will be listed in the 'Internet' tab only if the server can send a post request to master.vc-mp.org. What if the IP of this masterlist is not reachable in the country where the server is?

So my idea is to send this POST request from my local computer with "port=8192, ip=my.remote.ip". When vc-mp browser sends 'i' message to port 8192 of my server, it will see that server is working. So my server directly goes to Internet tab.

isolated countries like china, russia or north korea can use their own masterlist (hosted in their country)
But I did it, and I only wait Chinese player to change master url
