hi!

i tried to make a list, from which the user can choose a LAN ip, because i'm getting real sick of typing it everytime ;)

i guess this is a simple topic with a question-an answer-and a thank you:)

edit: btw: i'm using the k-net network library

I had code converted to BlitzMax for me so that it would list all online systems on my local network. Would this be of use?

if its for testing then just read the ip from a text file.

well since i dont have these commands in blitz3d (and there are a lot of them...) i can't find use for that sorry :(

and lately i found this: http://www.blitzbasic.com/Community/posts.php?topic=51621
which doesnt seem to help either.

there must be a blitz command i guess. CoundHostIPs() and HostIP() together -> they are just listing all local ip adresses eg. of my own computer...

i just had the thought that i might explained my problem the wrong way!

i dont want that the servers are listed with their names and number of players etc...
i just want to have listed all local IP's which are hanging arroung in the local network. then i might be able to choose the right one!
