Heartbeat
Information
Heartbeat is a new type of server list for minecraft. Currently the project is in development.
FAQ
- Q: What makes this better than other server list modifications?
A: Heartbeat works differently than other mods. Traditional server lists require the server owner to register their server and install a remote administration mod. This works fine until the server's IP address changes, or the server is offline. This results in users not knowing your server even exists or being frustrated that outdated information wasted their time.
- Q: How does it work?
A: Heartbeat sends important game information to your website using the highly customizable PHP platform every 15 minutes, or every time an update is needed (ex. Server starting up, player joining/leaving, Shutting down, etc). Instead of a website contacting your server, your server contacts the website. By doing this, we have the advantages of:
1) No registration needed. - The server does not need to pre-registered
2) Always up-to-date. - Sends updated IP address, Clients Connected, and Other server details.
3) Higher security - Not a remote administration script. One way only!
