Server list information thing?

InfamousSheep · Dec 16, 2013

So I have seen a few servers do this and I believe it was after the 1.7.2 release.
Does anyone know how this is achieved?

Thanks in advance!

Probably packets:

1.7 added it so that you can hover over the server and it'll show the players. So they are probably using packets to change the names.

InfamousSheep I was right! You can do this with protocol lib:

I should probably mention that there is a new cool feature in ProtocolLib - a built-in server ping wrapper that allows you to modify the appearance of your server in the multiplayer menu:
Code:java
@Override
public void onEnable() {
ProtocolLibrary.getProtocolManager().addPacketListener(
// I mark my listener as async, as I don't use the Bukkit API. Please note that
// your listener may be executed on the main thread regardless.
new PacketAdapter(this, ListenerPriority.NORMAL,
Arrays.asList(PacketType.Status.Server.OUT_SERVER_INFO), ListenerOptions.ASYNC) {
 
@Override
public void onPacketSending(PacketEvent event) {
handlePing(event.getPacket().getServerPings().read(0));
}
});
}
 
private void handlePing(WrappedServerPing ping) {
ping.setPlayers(Arrays.asList(
new WrappedGameProfile("id1", ChatColor.RED + "Hello. " + ChatColor.RESET +
"This is line number one."),
new WrappedGameProfile("id2", "Hello. This is line number two."),
new WrappedGameProfile("id3", "Hello. This is line number three.")
));
}
Which looks like so when the user hovers over the player count:

You can also set the favicon, and display an image next to your server:
Code:java
@Override
public void onEnable() {
ProtocolLibrary.getProtocolManager().addPacketListener(
new PacketAdapter(this, ListenerPriority.NORMAL,
Arrays.asList(PacketType.Status.Server.OUT_SERVER_INFO), ListenerOptions.ASYNC) {
@Override
public void onPacketSending(PacketEvent event) {
handlePing(event.getPacket().getServerPings().read(0));
}
});
}
 
private void handlePing(WrappedServerPing ping) {
try {
// Place this next to your plugin.yml
ping.setFavicon(CompressedImage.fromPng(getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("tux.png")));
} catch (IOException e) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Cannot access image.", e);
}
}
Which looks like this in the server menu:

This is more powerful than simply placing the image in your server directory, as the image may depend on the IP address of the connected client, be dynamically generated, and so on.
