Is there a way for me to make a Visual Basic program that will get the online status of my SA-MP server, the players, the ping, hostname, stuff like that? Maybe not Visual Basic but is there a way to make a program like that?

Do you mean Server signature?

There's a wiki page explaining the SAMP server query mechanism available here : https://sampwiki.blast.hk/wiki/Query_Mechanism

Yeah, kinda like that in the sense that it will get the online status etc only in a separate program made by myself, so that people who play my server can just open the program to see if the server is online etc. What would also be good is news, like an RSS feed maybe? Just an app to show information about the server

[Michael B]

Yeah, it is possible, and I've seen such of custom built programs.

e.g.


It requires some good work though.

For your RSS system, to display the news you'll either have to get them from some web page using HTTP(S) queries or you'll have to code a "master program" that will send the informations to all the client programs registered on it.

Okay, thanks for the help everyone
