Query Packet Manipulation¶
SAPP allows you to add additional fields to the query packet received through Halo’s query’s system.
Command Usage |
Effect |
---|---|
query_add <key><value> |
Add an entry to the query string or overwrites an existing query value. |
query_del <index orname> |
Remove an entry from the query string. |
query_list |
List custom query entries. |
To request a query packet, simply send “query” to the server’s UDP port through a UDP socket. Each entry is separated with backslashes with the first entry and every other entry after that being a key and the second entry with every other entry after that being a value to its respective key. These packets are often used with game tracking services and automatically-generated status images.
