Adding servers by clicking a link

@Admins Please move to a correct subforum if in a wrong one

I am basically copying my twitter posts here.
I always wanted something, so i can click a link or button in a serverlist, and it opens Minecraft (Windows 10 Edition) and i join the server.

Due to Minecraft's limitation in arguments on startup, you can't open a connection to a server directly (though you can open a world using .mcworld files).

So, i sat down and learned C# yesterday.
This is what i came up with:


It manages the server list without having MC opened.

When clicking on a weblink

Code:

mcpeserver://ip:port:name

or

Code:

mcpe-server-manager://ip:port:name

, it'll add it to the list (without saying anything) and opens Minecraft. That way you only have to click on the "Friends" tab in the game, scroll to the server you added, click and tada, you are in.

The thing is: it would only be fully useful if a serverlist would use/advertise it.
I could also create a chrome addon, which automatically creates a button/link for the program on the website.

I'd love to hear some shares and thoughts about it.

Sincerely, Dan.

 

I am pretty sure the bold somehow set when changing size of the text. Also, if, its font-style, not the font itself. How is it abusing, if the options to use different text styles are given? If not wanted, remove this: and allow systext only

 

We're more likely to get

Code:

minecraft://open-server

Since the minecraft url scheme already exists

(to shorten it for you, here's @jocopa3's reply:

Its an shell app referrer to open it. Also, i use it in the code to open MC10.

 

Same. I also have it as a chrome bookmark

 

Please stop going off-toppic. (this thread was _moved_ to off-toppic, because no other proper toppics like "tools" exist. This is just ABOUT the program though, which you can easily figure out by properly reading my first post in this thread)

 

Nope, MCJava actually has none of these protocol callers.

As you may see, for you i also changed the style to seem to be like the default. My phone browser supports something called "reading mode", you might like to use this.

Another thing to add: they are both Microsoft versions, as you might remember, Mojang was bought.

 

what he said

 

You don't earn any points for spamming threads in the "Off-Toppic" section.

 

My post was off-topic in the off-topic section

 

I request Lock or deletion of thread. Some persons don't understand what the difference between |forums/issue trackers| and |chats| are.

 

its in the off-topic section. We can go off topic.
