You can join servers directly from this list, and I'll also add any custom master servers if you guys know of any.

(August 8th, 2015) Updates:

• Steam support
• Linux support (albeit with manual setup, but you probably expect this anyways)

In chrome there's no join button and clicking on the servers doesn't even send me towards them?
Uh is this a bug in chrome?

[otto-san]

Have you put the v20 master server in this yet?

[halonerfer29]

How about sorting by Players and Server?

You can lol, click the table headers.

I'll look into it, but it'll launch v21 when you click on it. If you only have v20 installed, this won't matter.
I'll figure out some way to add details about adding ways to open v20 with blockland20:// sometime later.

You're meant to just click on the server, there is no join button.
I don't use Windows so I can't confirm if it is a bug. Do you use the Steam version?

Yes I use the steam version but I can download the non-steam version if you want.

But is there a way to make it compatible with steam?

[Swollow]

when you switch master servers it makes the 'Players' table row header merge into the top most server row

you'll have to ping servers with websockets

I have to use a different URL scheme for the Steam version if i remember right, that shouldn't be too hard to deal with.
EDIT: Only issue would be passing the server address to it, hrm. I can launch Blockland, but so far that's it.
EDIT2: http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=173622.0 and http://gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/132591/shortcuts-to-launch-game-with-different-launch-options-in-steam might be relevant

I believe I just fixed this.

I tried doing websockets and the "get an image" method and still got response times from each server ranging from 0 - 5ms, idk.

Something similar I made.

not on Windows, so I need someone with the Steam version to test this for me

Go to the browser, press F12, and paste this in:
$("#joinTrigger").attr("src", "steam://rungameid/250340//-connect 104.237.141.93:40000");, and press Enter.

This should launch Blockland via Steam, and connect you to Boss Battles. If this works, I'll go ahead and add an option that will switch between the blockland:// and steam:// protocols. v20 master servers will be forced to blockland20:// once/if I figure all that out.
