NAME

Net::Halo::Status - Query Halo game servers for status.

SYNOPSIS

  use Net::Halo::Status;

  my $q = Net::Halo::Status->new(
    Server => '127.0.0.1',
    Port => '2302',
    Timeout => '3',
  );

  ...or...

  my $q = new Net::Halo::Status;
  $q->server('127.0.0.1');
  $q->port('2302');
  $q->timeout('3');

  my $status = $q->query(); # Sends query and returns result.

DESCRIPTION

Net::Halo::Status implements the Halo server status protcol; the same protocol used when you click on a server in the network lobby in the Halo client. This is a different protocol from the Halo client/server protocol, so, sadly, no scripted rcon access or similar.

SEE ALSO

POE::Component::Client::Halo, from which most of the protocol code came.
