Function Documentation

◆ CheckClientAndServerName()

static void CheckClientAndServerName ( )

static

Check whether the client and server name are set, for a dedicated server and if not set them to some default value and tell the user to change this as soon as possible.

If the saved name is the default value, then the user is told to override this value too. This is only meant dedicated servers, as for the other servers the GUI ensures a name has been entered.

◆ CheckPauseHelper()

static void CheckPauseHelper	(	bool	pause,
		PauseMode	pm
	)

static

Helper function for the pause checkers.

If pause is true and the current pause mode isn't set the game will be paused, if it it false and the pause mode is set the game will be unpaused. In the other cases nothing happens to the pause state.

Parameters

pause	whether we'd like to pause
pm	the mode which we would like to pause with

static

Simple helper to find the location of the given authorized key in the authorized keys.

Parameters

authorized_keys	The keys to look through.
authorized_key	The key to look for.

Returns: The iterator to the location of the authorized key, or authorized_keys.end().

◆ NetworkClientConnectGame()

bool NetworkClientConnectGame	(	const std::string &	connection_string,
		CompanyID	default_company,
		const std::string &	join_server_password
	)

Join a client to the server at with the given connection string.

The default for the passwords is nullptr. When the server needs a password and none is given, the user is asked to enter the password in the GUI. This function will return false whenever some information required to join is not correct such as the company number or the client's name, or when there is not networking avalabile at all. If the function returns false the connection with the existing server is not disconnected. It will return true when it starts the actual join process, i.e. when it actually shows the join status window.

Parameters

connection_string	The IP address, port and company number to join as.
default_company	The company number to join as when none is given.
join_server_password	The password for the server.

Returns: Whether the join has started.
