Read this if you own a server on the servebrowser list!

Player counts have been a long-requested feature for the server browser in Airshipper, and we're finally close to releasing them!

The query server, which allows for clients to query status information about a server, was already merged 5 months ago. Soon, Airshipper will also make use of it do display more accurate ping information, player counts, version information and the global battlemode.

Player counts, server version and battlemode displayed for the servers which already have queries enabled

Important info for server owners

While this feature is enabled by default for new servers, it requires a bit of manual work for existing servers.

If you own a server on the serverbrowser list, please read the following issue on gitlab for more information: https://gitlab.com/veloren/serverbrowser/-/issues/103

You will find a short guide explaining how to enable the query server, please add your comment once it is enabled!
