[REQUEST] about ping tester

[moonice]

Requesting better ping tester like this for every channels
or just simply give me the server adresses.

in Batch (.bat) or (.cmd) format

Code: Select all

@ECHO off
REM original code from PlanetSide 2
:MENU
ECHO 1 - Onigiri US Ping Test
ECHO 2 - Exit
SET /P M=Input: 
IF %M%==1 GOTO PINGOUS
IF %M%==2 GOTO EOF

:PINGOUS
CALL:doggy google.com
CALL:doggy 74.117.117.118
ECHO Onigiri US:               %msc% %status%
ECHO.
ECHO.
GOTO MENU

:doggy
SET msc=Error
SET status=
FOR /F "tokens=4 delims==" %%i IN ('ping.exe -n 1 %1 ^| FIND "ms"') DO SET msc=%%i

If you're good with codes then please try to make it better.

Well...Actually, not a bad idea. I'm not too proficient in Batch/cmd files so I can't really edit your coding...However, I would like to suggest several improvements in the design of this ping test:
1. The ping test is strictly between your exe.file/general network speed and the Onigiri server. However, as this is an MMORPG (massive is the key word here), it may have several sub-servers that the cilent will connect to based on latency (The thing that affects lag). The ping-test can be considered inconsistent due to the possibility of the ping test conducted to either the main server or one of the sub-server, as based on what the code directs it too. You can include more prompts to resend packages when incepting unaccessible/high latency results from servers.
2. When creating variables, try including an encapsulation of the scope. (I think it's the endLocal/setLocal commands but I'm..eh...okay you're probably 100x better than me on this)
3. The exit...? (I can't identify it - Is it the gota - MENU prompt?)
4. Not a improvement of sorts but you could change de name......Crediting Sh4rkill3rSG is fine but you're making it as if he's doing it.

Hope these help!

I guess no one can give you the actual IP that these servers use...you can try it with the "login" server, but i guess you can only ping them until you reach the security border fo the server center.

I use WTFast to get rid of some ping spikes etc. and it works good but i have no clue where the server is physically located, so it makes it hard for me to choose the right setting so i sent a support request for that IP a week ago and still no answer...hope you get something from them and maybe this nice ping tester works then.

I'm no good with codes to start with, thats why Im requesting for another tester like this.
And yes this is a copy-pasted work.
