Just a shower thought, Since many servers switch hosts , IP , ports and players have to add the server in lists again in my experience a server loses 30-50% of playerbase after a IP change. so instead of locking the server and changing name to alert users about IP change a server could just redirect user to another server when player joins (along with a prompt to add new IP or update existing server's IP in list).


Code:
Redirect(playerid,"192.168.1.1:7777")

The player should have to manually accept the redirect (similar how hl2dm used to do it). Either some command or msg box.

If this feature is implemented it will be the best implementation and that would give open.mp much advantage

Never implement this because it's abuseable, thank you.

It can be easily prevented by giving the player the choice to accept the redirect (either some command or auto generated dialog). Similar how HL2DM does it.
