[ModAPI] Inter-Server Communications
Having a way for mods to communicate across SE servers may allow for more advanced
multi-server communication and player routing. Servers would be allowed a large degree of
control over the ISC, for example: setting whether it's enabled at all or specifying the types of
connections and how many are allowed. The ISC would basically be a pipe through which
raw information could be sent and received between registered mods.
An example of some possible features and server settings are outlined here:
This is not a functional implementation but just outlines how I think an implementation might work. This particular version is non-duplex and buffered.
The mod api already contains a method to connect a client with a server but no method to connect to said server before hand and do more specific validations. This would offer a way for mods to communicate with themselves or other mods between servers if the server owner allows anyway.
