3.0.2

• Fix player name extraction for Unreal Tournament (1999) and possibly other gamespy1 games.

3.0.1

• Clarified that nodejs 12 is now required for gamedig 3
• Fixed misc player fields not going into raw subobject in assettocorsa, fivem, and gamespy2

3.0.0

Major Changes:

• NodeJS 12 is now required
• The name field is now guaranteed to exist on all player objects. If a player's name is unknown, the name will be an empty string.
• All non-name player fields have been moved into a raw sub-field. This means that, like the raw subobject of the parent response, all non-name fields are now considered to be unstable and may be changed during minor releases of GameDig.
• "Rules" are no longer queried for valve protocol games by default. Many games do not respond to this query anyways (meaning we have to wait for timeout), and its contents is often not even used since it only exists in the raw subfield. If you depend on rules, you may pass the requestRules: true option to re-enable them.
• The raw.steamappid and raw.gameid fields for valve games have been consolidated into raw.appId.

2.0.0

Breaking API changes

• Node 8 is now required
• Removed the port_query option. You can now pass either the server's game port or query port in the port option, and GameDig will automatically discover the proper port to query. Passing the query port is more likely be successful in unusual cases, as otherwise it must be automatically derived from the game port.
• Removed callback parameter from Gamedig.query. Only promises are now supported. If you would like to continue using callbacks, you can use node's util.callbackify function to convert the method to callback format.
• Removed query field from response object, as it was poorly documented and unstable.
• Removed notes field from options / response object. Data can be passed through a standard javascript context if needed.

Minor Changes

• Rewrote core to use promises extensively for better error-handling. Async chains have been dramatically simplified by using async/await across the codebase, eliminating callback chains and the 'async' dependency.
• Replaced --output pretty cli parameter with --pretty.
• You can now query from CLI using shorthand syntax: gamedig --type <gameid> <ip>[:<port>]
• UDP socket is only opened if needed by a query.
• Automatic query port detection -- If provided with a non-standard port, gamedig will attempt to discover if it is a game port or query port by querying twice: once to the port provided, and once to the port including the game's query port offset (if available).
• Added new connect field to the response object. This will typically include the game's ip:port (the port will reflect the server's game port, even if you passed in a query port in your request). For some games, this may be a server ID or connection url if an IP:Port is not appropriate.
• Added new ping field (in milliseconds) to the response object. As icmp packets are often blocked by NATs, and node has poor support for raw sockets, this time is derived from the rtt of one of the UDP requests, or the time required to open a TCP socket during the query.
• Improved debug logging across all parts of GameDig
• Removed global Gamedig.debug. debug is now an option on each query.

Protocol Changes

• Added support for games using older versions of battlefield protocol.
• Simplified detection of BC2 when using battlefield protocol.
• Fixed buildandshoot not reading player list
• Standardized all doom3 games into a single protocol, which can discover protocol discrepancies automatically.
• Standardized all gamespy2 games into a single protocol, which can discover protocol discrepancies automatically.
• Standardized all gamespy3 games into a single protocol, which can discover protocol discrepancies automatically.
• Improved valve protocol challenge key retry process

1.0.0

• First official release
• Node.js 6 is now required
