some of the new additions to Dedicated servers, but but wait there's more okay I've saved the best to last at least in my opinion and that is that we've implemented support for an HTTP API that can handle HTTP request methods between the server and the client what the hell does that mean tell you what that means so what this means is that it will be possible to develop external applications that can talk directly to the dedicated server by using token authentication applications are going to be able to send HTP requests to the server such requests could be like getting the server state or you know any information about the current game session or telling the ser to pause or shut down like there's there's a bunch of stuff that you're going to be able to take advantage of, using this API and it makes the server way more extendable for scripting and you know any kind of cool service that you might want to develop for it and depending on what people make with this we might extend the functionality for the API in the future and while we don't have any documentation for the API right now we do plan to release some documentation for the API in the future but the thing that I am looking forward to the most, is once the mon Community managed to get proper modding support for dedicated servers which by the way I know you all are working really hard on this like just hang in their modders okay, once they do this they're going to be able to create their own hooks into this API so we're really looking forward to see like what you people make with this cool so yeah those are some of the new features
