QStat is an open source command-line program that retrieves and displays information from game servers that have implemented a game server query protocol, such as A2S. It supports reporting information such as the state of the game server (e.g., running, down, non-response), the server name, the map name, the number of connected players, the ping response time, game server rules, and player information.
QStat comes prepackaged with a collection of built-in game types, but you can define additional game types in the QStat configuration file. By default, the QStat configuration file is called qstat.cfg
, but you can specify an alternative configuration file with the QSTAT_CONFIG
environment variable and the -cfg
command-line option.
