[RunUO 2.0 SVN] Dynamic IP Updater

[razzles]

This is a modification to the default serverlist.cs file to periodically check the IP address and update it if it has changed. This was made primarly for people who's IP address changes fairly frequently, but can be used with mostly static addresses as well. What it does is to add a timer that fires every minute (adjustable in the script) to check the IP address and update it, displaying a message on the console if it's changed.

All changes are contained within #region directives. The first edit contains the only 2 variables that need to be changed. As with any modification of distro files, please backup your original file before merging these edits.

i've been needing this!

All this does is send a new message about what the IP is to the Server Window every so often. I wrote one ages ago for 1.0 that updates places like DynDNS and No-IP it may still work for 2.0 but I doubt it. Thanks for the contribution though.

this scipt is helpful. As prior to using this script, whenever my IP address changed, even though No-ip redirected to the new IP, players couldn't reconnect until the RunUO RC2 server was manually reset. (which usually happened when I was out shopping, at work, or sleep)

Glad it helped you. My IP is mostly static (hasn't changed in almost a year now), but I've seen posts a few times from others with problems like yours and that's what inspired me to write this.
