So I have something you guys may be able to help with. I own SmiteCamp[0] and we're having trouble with our server status checker for months now because I just can't seem to find what IP address the game launcher pings to check if the server is up.
I'm sure a complete novice with Wireshark or similar could find this out instantly, but I'm a complete newbie when it comes to things of that nature.
Is this something you guys could help me with?
Deliverables would just be a simple IP (or collection of IP's) so I can just ping it using Ruby in our Rails app.

- jedberg 12y agoI went to your site but I can't figure out how to download your game (it's a game right?). The "tips for new players" is lorem ipsum so I assume you're still building it? Regardless, if you can run the game on a Mac or Linux box, just open a shell and run this 'sudo tcpdump'. You'll see a bunch of background traffic and then you should see the connections to your hosts.
- sergiotapia 12y agoI've tried that before and there's just so much traffic popping up that I can't make heads or tails of it. As for the game, we're just a fansite for a game we enjoy playing. Think: Wowhead.com -> World of Warcraft. SmiteCamp -> Smite
- jedberg 12y agoAh I got ya. Sounds like the other guys have you covered!
- brandonhsiao 12y agoSounds like a well-defined task, so we've got you covered :) Send us an email and mention you're from HN in the subject line, and I'll take care of you myself.
