Yeah it would be great if there was a phone app or website that you can have send you an alert based on server filters, such as when a certain server gets to more than 6 drivers, or when certain drivers are playing, or any server in Aus + USA that gets to more than x drivers, etc.

I'd pay 99 cents for that!

So many times I've got nothing on, start up the PC and login to AC,  see that there are only a handful of drivers playing in the pub servers so switch it all off.

That's one of my pet hates!!! >:(
Just say $1, not that 99c wanker bullshit. ::)

They think they have us fooled.  I'd rather pay $2 and see more go to the developer.

Nice, a shame the users on the server aren't in that call. Assume there is another call you make for a single server to get the player list?

That was the raw data that makes up the server list. I now have a raw program that can get the list of all the servers, and spit out this crude output, for example. I have all the info about current session, cars, pickup, password etc. I'll have to see if I can get the player names too. Should be able to, because the game can.

You're a god-daam genius Wally.

I'll fund some little Filipino to make the phone app if I have to if we can get the info! :p

I've dabbled in android apps before. Now I have an incentive to dabble a little more!

You could do a responsive web app so it works on all phones unless you're looking forward to the android part  ;D

Using that raw json knocking something up in angularjs and bootstrap would be super quick.

Dont worry about iphones apple can make an app for those guys. They are the best at everything already

Not sure if its the best time to work on this sort of thing as it may need a full redo after 1.2 but if its more a proof of concept then go ahead.

However you have 14hrs left before guybrush has a hissy fit if his deadline is missed and needs to storm your codeing cave.  ;D



Edit: not sure if the gif is Guybrush due to missed deadline or Bacchulum because it made it but cost 99c.

Interesting... but then it's got to be hosted somewhere I guess, and you cop all the traffic.
