00:39.42asciiwhitehey fellas
00:39.56learnerhi
00:39.57orchidhello
00:40.00asciiwhitei'm located in Aussie,so most US servers don't like me because of latency
00:40.07asciiwhiteis there anyway to locate servers based on ping ?
00:40.45learnermm. not really without some scripting.
00:40.56asciiwhiteany programs that do it ?
00:40.59asciiwhitei.e xqf
00:41.58learnerif you know bash scripting, it wouldn't be that hard at all to modify the misc/serverstats.sh script to get a ping time
00:42.26asciiwhiteok thanks mate
00:42.35learnercheck back soon .. might have something for you
00:42.39asciiwhiteok cool
00:43.06learnerwhat OS are you on?

00:43.31asciiwhitesure
00:43.35asciiwhite:)
00:46.23asciiwhitealso i've got an perm aussie server running on a 100mbit, can i add that to the server list ?
00:46.46learnerif you add -public, it becomes public ;)
00:47.11asciiwhiteok :)
00:47.11learneradd -d -d -d to get more verbose logging info that will tell you, among other things, whether the server is private or public
