Server Browser / Rust Server List shows wrong amount of players

[tarynkelley]

I noticed that most rust server list sites always show only the amount of active steam players but not cracked players.

For example when using: http://rust-servers.net/

Is there any way to fix that? How they get these information? Via RCON?

I think at connection It fails to auth the players and cant show It. Maybe there is a way to hax the steam api like I did in experimental, even I at RustBuster wasnt able to query all the users, if you remember my video. I actually need to rewrite the SSL part, I need to find an example that is able to handle multiple connections at the server, and It is encrypted.

I was always wondering what would happen if i would launch the steam server with the official code paramter xdd

Official code? You mean a VAC secure?

I'm running my server as an official Steam Server with VAC activated + AuthAllow plugin. It even shows up in the Steam Rust Legacy Ingame Server Browser.

Official Servers tab.

I remember you implemented something into Fougerite, but the rust server still returns only the amount of Steam Users.

Do you have any idea how to maybe fetch the player amount via web or an external program (e.g. via rcon)?

Maybe a C# Plugin with an inbuilt HTTP server simply returning the player amount

I think the setting needs to run on a timer.
