That is a beautiful solution!
If it's scanning the battlefront process then I think what is handling is an individual dedicated server, correct?

Right now I'm aiming at the master server to achieve handing any public server (those that announce to the master server list).

There is also a luxury that the current master server implemented is open source, so events could be generated directly in theory

In the future I think something that can optionally dial into a process such as your bot could be very fascinating, linking the two together

Perhaps something like:
Get events and server lists from master server
Check port XYZ on dedicated server IP
 if responds ask it to forward events as if it's a dedicated server bot

I'm getting ahead of myself, I'll reply back when I have some basic master server interop

Correct

Could somebody pass me a link to the code?
Cheers!

Sounds like a lot of work, but a lot of fun ;)

I play less now but I'll always be around, lets keep this site and battlefront going. :)

This might be off topic but is this the actual master server used for swbfspy?
I am a bit surprised that it is running on VB  :o

A reimplementation of the MS, yes. I'm learning how to compile it and configure as well. I intend to containerize the build process and runtime to make it simple to work with.
