Server disappeared from meta

[PowerWyrm]

At roughly 11pm tonight my test server disappeared from the metaserver. Was something changed on the meta? I checked the trac database and it seems there has been a change for Ironman servers to comply to some kind of "format". Should I change the format from the PWMAngband server too?

As discussed in game/irc chat, the meta server now validates more carefully the format of the data sent to it by game servers. This caused the ironman servers to be rejected by the meta server because they didn't follow the standard formatting, and this would effect any other servers which didn't follow the standard format either.

A consistent format (albeit a dodgy one) keeps systems which parse the meta server data working nicely.

The "official" format accepted by the meta is (as a regex):

Code: Select all

^(.+) Number of players: ([0-9]+) (Names: .+)?Version: (.+)

I fixed the format sent by my server. Now it's back on the meta.
