Yu suk dike???

​

What is Yu suk dike??? ?
It is a small and fast addon to calculate the server statistics and server population.


Do i get the server statistics from both factions?
You get only Data from your own faction


Does it work for all vanilla servers?
Yes it does! (slower for Kronos! - check my other Youtube Video)


How fast is it on Kronos?
It took me 2 minutes to get the data for 555 players, more players = longer!

EDIT:

Server admins changed the who function again - census and this addon will not work properly anymore!

This seems very simple, clear n' concise! I will give it a try !

Tried this but it gets to 144 players and then stops making progress.

Yeah I'm on en/us

Edit: I added a print command after every SendWho and it's getting stuck on sending this over and over:
60 r-"Night"

Edit2: Fixed it. Replaced all instances of "NightElf" with "Night".

Edit3: It's still getting stuck in some situations. If it does a SendWho and the result is returned in the chat frame rather than updaing the main who window, it seems to not know what to do and keeps sending the same query.

Also, when it goes into doing a who request for every letter of the alphabet it majorly slows things down, could there be an option to skip that part of the scanning and just miss some results?

Edit4: Made a small modification to show what the current search is. Added this function at the top:

function AskWho(query)
    SendWho(query)
    WhoFrameEditBox:SetText(query)
end

And changed every instance of "Sendwho()" to "AskWho()"

Its not stucked, it asks the server for an answer, over and over again - i send the who question every 0.8 seconds, since the responce from the server can be very variable :/

well, thats the only way to get the exact numer of population - census does the same, but not with every letter in the alphabet - thats why census is not 100% exact but faster -

i will check alliance again and make an option to do a faster scan with less letters (censuslike)


edit: ok, i found the problem, will fix it asap

edit2: ok, fixed the bug the alliance
