[CF-Devel] Metaserver feature request

[Joris Bontje]

Hello,

Like you probably know I keep graphical statistics of the metaserver information. (
     
     http://mids.student.utwente.nl/~crossfire/stats/
     
     ) Every 5 minutes graphs are created displaying the amount of servers in total, players in total, and also players for every server listed on the metaserver.
I also made an other script that can plot the datatraffic of one server, using the CSSTAT lines in the serverlogs.

I can adjust my metaserver graph program very easily to log the datatraffic of ALL the servers.
Tho things on the server side should be done:
1) Let the metaserver accept 2 extra fields (bytes in and bytes out).
2) Let the server send on every metaserver update those 2 fields.

The trick would be to do it in such a way that the current client don't get broken, probably by putting it in the comments field.
