This should have been implemented already. :/

If you click a servers name once it should refresh that server you clicked. So you don't have to refresh the whole damn server list if you want to know is the server full.

yes :/ weird that it isnt implented. Now i would want a player search and see whose in server added also.

EDIT: To blackdevil: depends, sometimes its even 5 seconds.

It takes only 1sec to refresh the whole server list so there's no point to add this.

And you have to find the server from the list again. Yay. And not everyone is using high speed connection. And sometimes the refresh button gets 'stuck'.

Is it really that annoying?
Use the filter, when the refresh button gets 'stuck' just press the cancel button and try again.

I do find it annoying yes, implement it, it's not big and it does improve the handyness.
Why are you against it anyway black? it's a postive addition for all of us isn't it?

I'm not really against it, i'm just tierd of all the suggestions here at the forum. I don't find it annoying so i don't think it's necessary. But it would be a good improvement.

For some reason I feel like I've already replied to this...maybe I closed the window or something and didn't post. I agree with Black..it doesn't take that long to refresh the server list, I do it quite often. In fact, I'm on the other side of the fence..I'd rather refresh the whole list and get all the servers than just wait for one.

But what if there is this one server you want to get in and its full? Do you want to refresh the whole list to see if its not full anymore?

To me it needs 10 seconds to load the list

me agrees with ville.. its annoying to refresh the whole list and bla bla..

Yup, I agree.. It's another 1 of those handy little suggestions that might be small, but improve the game nonetheless..

I believe its a good idea as well. When I try to join a server that has recently been filled (but it does not say so in the server list), my resolution changes 2 to 3 times (it clicks, then I see soldat and my desktop, then soldat full screen; repeat that 3 times). It gets pretty annoying, and eats up some minutes of my time.

Nothing much to debate about this. Good, simple idea.

i dont know if this is an old topic but , i can refresh a server by clicking on it once.

my apologies if this is an old topic and the update has been implemented.

It does "ping" but it does not refresh the player numbers as far as i recall..

Toumaz

It pings, but it doesn't refresh the player numbers and so on.
Maybe a button at the bottom of the screen, like "Refresh Server", that refreshes only the currently marked server in the list?

I agree whole heartedly, it is a real benefit to us 56k poverty stricken registered users who gave up DSL to register soldat :) (Joking there) But IT SHOULD BE A FUNCTION!

Not like this is some big coding task either. Simple thing. It should be implemented.

I agree with this! One server refresh/update button. Its saves time! Just like in All-Seeing Eye. Finnish people get great ideas! lol, except me, when I was trying to solve the ''camping problem''.

it would be nice if we could further the server info even more, perhaps you click on a server, and you can click a button called server information and a window would pop up giving you player names in the server, scores, and individual pings. this would be in addition to having a double click for server refresh just for the lobby. thus the only way to enter a server from the lobby would be to select a server and clicking join or pressing enter

Alamo

and this would even reduce lobby server load!

3 thumbs up!

I had 56k once and i know that refreshing the server list was a pain... so i'm up for it

Implent in the next version or never implent, that's my opinion.
