librebob[m]Hi fellas, I've found this via the wiki: http://my.bzflag.org/db/14:36
librebob[m]I was wondering what the hexcode is and how to decode it, if it's useful. eg contains player information14:37
librebob[m]additionally I was wondering what the command line arg is to connect to a server14:37
librebob[m]thank you in advance 🙌14:37

blast007the hex string is encoded like this: https://github.com/BZFlag-Dev/bzflag/blob/2.4/src/net/Ping.cxx#L228-L25214:44

blast007and as for connectiong to a server from the command line, if you mean launching the graphical client, that would be 'bzflag server.whatever' or 'bzflag server.whatever:5155' (or you can also supply a callsign and password)  see 'bzflag -help' for all the options14:52
blast007I don't know if the password would then show up in a process list14:52
librebob[m]thanks for that. any idea what the hexcodes are in the server list?14:54
blast007the things that I linked to above14:54
blast007or do you have a question about one of them specifically?14:54
librebob[m]i dont see that message sorry14:54
librebob[m]there is no link14:54
blast00709:43:59 < blast007> the hex string is encoded like this: https://github.com/BZFlag-Dev/bzflag/blob/2.4/src/net/Ping.cxx#L228-L25214:54
librebob[m]one of our clients must have eaten it14:54
librebob[m]awesome, thanks I see it now!14:55
