.It seems that I could do with a little bit of info now that I looked into it which I overlooked before(like name(though nor important), and the type of match and time of match). Is there anyway to do this/categorize the IPs sent...? :P Take a moment to think about exactly what you need, then tell ...

I'm working on a city builder in the style of the impressions classics (Pharaoh, Caesar ...), I can support reasonably big maps and have hundreds, maybe thousands of active objects already. Sounds promising. Can you say exactly how big your maps are, in terms of tiles/cells? Are you maintaining a s...

Something with multiple entities pathfinding on a large map, for example. Complex computation being done continuously. I guess Pacman is the minimal example to qualify, but even that's stretching.

Done. If anyone else wants a simple matchmaking/server listing service, feel free to ask.

I do not consider Asteroids (or any clone thereof) to be of any reasonable scale. It is, quite literally, one of the simplest games ever made.

Woah, do you mean like making the website for me? Yes. I'm using it for a shooter platformer game... :crazy: How far along are you in development? How many players are you anticipating to have matchmaking at the same time? 10, 100, 1000, more? Do you need any other information besides IP? Like play...

Whenever you like. What will you use it for exactly?

speedrunners are technically not malevolent cheaters, they just like finding ways to play the game differently than how the developers intended them to be played; some might not consider that cheating at all. :3 There exist malevolent speedrunners who cheat. Such people are banned every so often fr...

On a theoretical level, there is no way to ensure that a submitted score is 100% legitimate. In practical terms, you can make it increasingly difficult to cheat. First things first, you have to be able to punish cheaters. One way to have that is to tie leaderboard access to paid accounts - paying cu...

Is it possible to have a site for the game where people post the IP address of a game they want to host? If so is it advisable? Sure, and it can be automated - i.e. a matchmaking server. If it makes your life easier, I can do this part for you. Good thing you're thinking about security. IP addresse...
