Status Analytics for all OT Servers

Introducing a new way to view OT Archive's data, gathered over the status protocol.
You can now access the analytics page of any OT Server on OT Archive by accessing a server page and clicking on the "Analytics" button in the side menu (end of the page on mobile).

It is a dashboard with different information extracted from the data the server sent over the status protocol.
The main purpose is to help server admins to analyze player behavior and it's change over time. The data is limited, but the extracted information might be of use.






Expect improvements, more metrics and better visuals, over time.


What do my server need to integrate?

• Add it to OT Archive's servers list
• Use the default status protocol. Most engines are compatible, unless you purposedly messed with it.

Keep in mind:

• Data gathered over the status protocol is limited.
• Currently, data is gathered every 10 minutes.
• It might get slow, lots to process.

Not a Mathemagician, suggestions are welcome.

Awesome! I've been wanting to do something like this for quite some time. Congratulations

That's actually insane. Good job!

I think this is nice from a server owner perspective, I'd like to see your page become nicer for the consumer to find a server and it has a bright future! the server list itself I mean front page, also I'm not very happy with the choice of Colour palette (purple/white).. but that's just me maybe,

just some initial feedback, good luck!

Hmmmm, this is the kind of system that shows much more than what we usually see around... congratulations man!

I'm seeing servers with new high level players and no game hours. Your site is right, or there's something suspicious, or maybe I haven't learned how to use it.

You can certainly use OT Archive to find things like edited characters, however you have to keep in mind how it works.
The status protocol sends only the names and levels of the online characters. To extract useful information you have to compare it with previous checks.
