Fall back to parsing the log for the player count about enshrouded-server HOT 6 CLOSED

Hey, thanks for the request. I could try to adopt it with my bash scripts. But I don't know how robust the logic is. It reads the service logs to count every join and exit of a user.

I hoped we get some kind of rcon, so I could get the information strait from that and also do server messaging, to alert users of an upcoming restart.

But I will try fiddling around with that and report back.

Thanks for the image, it's been working quite well for me.

Using python-a2s and a simple python -c 'import a2s; print(len(a2s.players(("ip",port))));' seems to work. I tried in a python container alongside the enshrouded-server container, but I expect the "ip" being "127.0.0.1" would work too, if not SERVER_IP.

Thanks for the suggestion. I added the python-a2s script to check for connected players locally. I removed the STEAM_* env vars and added a UPDATE_CHECK_PLAYERS env to enable the check or not.

I'll test it a bit further and merge it afterwards.

@opello If you want you can check this feature with the latest dev or dev-proton image.

Thanks! I updated and will do a better test later, but it seems to work:

# PYTHONPATH=/home/enshrouded/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages python3 -c 'import a2s; print(len(a2s.players(("127.0.0.1",15637))));'
