UserCount:

[DiabloVodkaShot]

Hey Guys,

Just wondering if anybody can offer some support on how to check if a server is online and pull the user count using PHP, for our website.

Many Thanks

I'm just pulling random ideas off the top of my head but can you read the last line of a text document using php?

If so then we probably need to print the usercount every 5 minutes to the txt document and make the website read it.

I think this is how I remember it being in mir 3. How difficult it will be? I'm not sure.

you should create a new listener on a different port. it'll listen for incoming requests and return the user count.

basic example to get you going here, but tbh most of the code is already in the c# project so can be taken from that.
