RCON based player finder GUI for ark survival evolved
This program allows location of players on an ark survival evolved cluster using a GUI. The program converts the in-game unreal engine coordinates returned by the extended rcon command "listallplayerpos" and converts them to readable latitude and longitude coordinates using the formulas found at: https://ark.fandom.com/wiki/Coordinates
For this program to function, the ark server you connect to must have two pre-requistes installed.
- Ark server API: https://gameservershub.com/forums/resources/ark-server-api.12/
- Extended RCON: https://gameservershub.com/forums/resources/extended-rcon.13/
This project has two dependencies that must be installed to run.
To connect to the server, the config.json.template file must be renamed to config.json and configured with the desired connection information. For example:
{
"friendly names":
[
{
"name": "123"
},
{
"name": "myusername"
}
],
"servers":
[
{
"name": "aberration",
"ip": "192.168.x.x",
"port": "28030",
"password": "supersecretpassword"
},
{
"name": "the center",
"ip": "192.168.x.x",
"port": "28030",
"password": "supersecretpassword"
}
]
}
