I'm not sure about an add-on for the invision power board considering I have never used it, so there might be one.

Though you can easily accomplish this through php, to check if the ip address, server is online/accessible then it's just a matter of printing the status accordingly.
You should look int "fsockopen()"- of which is a built in function in php that can help you with this maybe.

Adding on to this, you will definitly want to limit the amount of times it will ping the server for people so they don't sit there refreshing the page, since it will be the same as a DDOS attack.

For example, make it so every IP address can can only ping the server once every 15 minutes etc.

I Don't know if you're able to add this to the forum. But I've found a solution for the gameserver status.



Before you can add this to your forum you have to add your server to the list first, which can be done here:

I Don't know if this is what you mean, but.. Yeah

I know you can do it with that. That's what we use on our current site, I was just wondering if there was a plugin so our Server Dev's have easy access but i guess I'll have to go with this route which isn't hard but sucks there's no addon for it.

You'd probably have to make the server count all players every few minutes and send a count to the website.
