Heyo,

I'm using UdpClient to query game servers about server name, map, number of players, etc.

I've followed the guidelines on this page http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Server_queries#Source_servers

and I'm getting a correct reply:

I have no idea how I would go about to get each chunk of information (server name, map and the like).

Any help? I'm assuming one would have to look at the reply format specified in the wiki I linked, but I don't know what to make of it.

Cheers,

Dynamic Type to do away with Reflection

as seen on West-Wind - Search for 'West-Wind'
The dynamic type in C# 4.0 is a welcome addition to the language. One thing I’ve been doing a lot with it is to remove explicit Reflection code that’s often necessary when you ‘dynamically’ need to walk and object hierarchy. In the past I’ve had a number of ReflectionUtils that used string based expressions… >>> More
