Topic: IPv6 masterservers

Hello smile

I am just configuring a teeworld server and recognized, that there are no masterservers that support IPv6. Are there any reasons for that? Is IPv6 support planned in the future?

Best regards,
danold

I thought the masterservers supported IPV6: https://github.com/teeworlds/teeworlds/issues/233

Not Luck, Just Magic.

Re: IPv6 masterservers

I tried it with following masterserver domains:

master1.teeworlds.com
master2.teeworlds.com
master3.teeworlds.com
master4.teeworlds.com

Are there IPv6 AAAA records for these? I guess not because pinging them from my IPv6 only VPS does not work.

EDIT: I just checked them via mxtoolbox.com, AAAA records are missing. I think it would be totally awesome if these would be added smile Providing IPv6 support without the ability to use proper domains does not make sense to me tongue

Re: IPv6 masterservers

We tried enabling IPv6 years ago, but it caused issues: https://github.com/teeworlds/teeworlds/issues/1292

Additionally, servers should have dual stack support (so a server isn't limited to IPv4 xor IPv6): https://github.com/teeworlds/teeworlds/issues/1294

Re: IPv6 masterservers

Sad to see it caused issues.
I tunnel IPv4 request via a dual stack vps to my IPv6 only vps, but for my server to be listed, the master servers would require IPv6 support^^
Maybe I find a way to route the requests from my IPv6 only server to the master servers via my dual stack vps.

I will let you know if I find a solution, thanks for your help! smile
