A hub inside of a game? in Developer Help

My idea is something like Bomberman Arena by DerDragon.
It's actually a hub made INSIDE of the game to connect to the other games, but retreiving info about the servers you can enter at the same time. (.ping , players, ...)

Also, it should look up on DIFFERENT hubs. So not just 1 game.
(Idea being that it's a whole packet of Minigames bundled together in 1 easily accesable (SP?) hub.)

Any ideas? Seeing as it's a hub in BYOND coding, I don't think you should use PHP in this, or am I incorrect? :<<br/>

Ah, you mean something like a base/central of bomberman games, and you get to choose which one to go to, or check its stats.

Yeah?

I'm not sure what you're asking about this, but I'd be more than happy to explain what's going on, or help you set up your own.

Mainly HOW you get the servers show up. I've got no idea how to let BYOND search hubs to see if a certain game is hosted and display it.

My hub doesn't search for games, games announce themselves to it. You can IM me on DerDragon.
