Method Details

connect_hook(self, args)

Handles adding the connection to the list of connections we maintain and poll from.

disconnect_hook(self, args)

Handles disconnects.

mainloop(self)

The main loop for picking up data off of the master and other socket connections. We then pass things off to hooks to be handled.

shutdown1_hook(self, args)

Ends the MasterServer network thread.

shutdown2_hook(self, args)

Flushes and closes all remaining socket connections. Then we shut down the master socket. This should be done after the rest of the server is shut down so that players get a chance to see what's going on (any messages).

startup_hook(self, args)

Initializes the MasterServer. It'll bind to sockets and do all that other stuff at this point.
