Server Browser missing a few things

The InGame Server Browser is missing a few essential features imho.
First it shouldnt automaticall re-update the whole Server-List when having gone into another menu, and then going back to the Server-Browser.
Second, it needs a "Stop Update" Button that allows for a controlled update, so one doesnt always have to wait for every Server to be refreshed. Given there will be even more Servers coming up in the Future, this Update Process will likely take longer and longer.

And it needs a filter options.. ie. locked servers, ping, pb, gametype, players.

So you can't press the space bar to stop the list update or smthg?
Seems they really put in the bare minimum of functionality.

There is a Filter ... but it is very bad ... you can Sort the servers by ping, mode, map a.s.o.
I'm waiting for the compatiblity with Allseeing eye and then i ill never use the serverbrowser more

Code: Select all
Quake 4
ServerType: Quake 4
RegKey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Id\Quake 4\INSTALLPATH
ExeName: Quake4.EXE
JoinTemplate: {EXEPATH}[ +set fs_game "{game}"][ +exec "{CONFIG}"][ +name "{NAME}"][ +password "{PASSWORD}"][ +rconpassword "{RCON_PASSWORD}"] +connect {address}
SpecTemplate: {EXEPATH}[ +set fs_game "{game}"][ +exec "{CONFIG}"][ +name "{NAME}"][ +password "{PASSWORD}"][ +rconpassword "{RCON_PASSWORD}"] +setu team s +connect {address}
HostTemplate: {EXEPATH}
Port: 28004
Maps: QUAKE4
Mutex: SV
Icon: IDI_Q3
1 if servertype != "Quake 4*" remove
Quake 4\q4base
JoinTemplate: {EXEPATH}[ +exec "{CONFIG}"][ +name "{NAME}"][ +password "{PASSWORD}"][ +rconpassword "{RCON_PASSWORD}"] +connect {address}
Mutex: Q4GAME
1 if game ~!= "q4base" remove
2 if g_enableDust != "" remove
3 if gameversion == "OSP*" remove
Quake 4\q4base\DM
