Re: Improvements for the Serverlist

1. Sort by
You have seen this in other programs, where if you click the titles of each column, the list will be sorted by these columns (see attached)

2. Dynamic Updating of players online

Maybe whenever the server list is open, the number of players online is updated every 1 or 2 seconds?

3. Filter

This would be a tab in the options menu where you can choose to filter out servertypes you dont want to see, as in

Filters

[ ] under construction
[ ] P2P
[ ] NP2P
[ ] All servers with less than [#] players

where the [#] is a number box that the player fills in

well, what do you all think?
I been suggesting that for a while, except with one more feature:

Make a thing where only staff accounts can access Under Construction servers, and accounts specified in a allow.txt file or something. Also make a thing in something like allow.txt which makes it so the server is either:

1) Grayed out on server list, and the text looks like:
server
Which means if you don't have access, you can't highlight or join server.

2) Invisible to server list. You can't even see the server on the list if you don't have access, making it a completely secret project.

3) Normal. The text is normal and bright green, like this:
server
Everyone has access to the server, well depending on P2P or not.
