A server hub dedicated to SS13 and possibly a better replacement for the default server page at Byond.

Status

Beta mode live at www.ss13.se

The code has ben run in production for some months now and seems to be stable enough. I guess we're now back in beta?

Features For Players

  • A friendlier server list.

  • Detailed pages for most public servers.

  • Player count stats and graphs.

  • Predict when it's a "good" time for you to play.

Data Source

The data used for the public servers is scraped from the Byond page. Relying on Byond means we're affected by their server downtime (no page, no data), but we will automatically discover any new public servers.

Since bad hosts and owners can spoof a server's reported player count, there's no way to guarantee that the calculated stats and graphs are 100% correct.

But then again it's just some silly numbers for a game.

Missing a server?

Since we're scraping only public servers, we're missing any private that's hidden from the Byond page (I also discarded the poller, so no more polling private servers from a VIP list).

We also see a lot of public servers coming and going, or merely changing names a lot. So any servers that hasn't been seen for 3 days, or more, will be automagically removed from the list.
