Registering custom IP address with server list

[abelian]

TL;DR: is there any way to choose which IP address is registered to DCS's server browser?

 

I am trying to do a somewhat nonstandard cloud-based server setup.

 

I have two public IP addresses for my server instance: the host VM public IP address, and a special anycast IP address. TCP and UDP traffic from clients to the anycast network will get routed to the VM using either address. Users from around the world will have a better experience when connecting via the anycast IP.

 

The problem is that connections initiated from the VM show up as using the normal public API and not the anycast IP. For example, the following shows up in dcs.log:

 

NET: Registering server as <Public IP>:10308 (port is assumed to be open)

 

Is there any way to manually set which IP address the server registers to?

Not yet.

I'll add a feature request.

Thank you! For now we can work around it by requesting that users with poor performance directly connect to the anycast IP. But it would be a big improvement for us if we could register a custom IP via serverSettings.lua.
