Wiimmfi/Connection Status

The Connection Status is a special feature of Wiimmfi. Server SV collects data from GPCM, MS (both GPCMv90 Status Type 02), MASTER (master-id) and from NATNEG (connected) and creates 4 bit fields for each player:

LOCAL

A bit is set, if 2 players have the same public IPv4. In this case, both clients use the same LAN and NATNEG is usually not needed.

CONNECT

A bit is set, if connection was accepted by the host. Then is sends a "GPCMv90 Status Type 02" message.

NN_CON

The NATNEG server sent a CONNECT message (NATNEG connection finished) to both clients.

NN_ACK

The NATNEG server received a CONNECT_ACK message of a client. This is the only not symmetric bit field.

The slot index is used for the bit number. If for example players at slot 2 and 5 did NATNEG, then bit 5 for player 2 and bit 2 for player 5 are set.

Server SV and mkw-ana print a summary as character vector. The following table shown the character and color selection, highest priority first:

char	color	Description
\	gray	Self reference. All other bits are ignored.
A	cyan	NN_ACK and CONNECT set. LOCAL is ignored.
a	green	NN_ACK set, but not CONNECT. LOCAL is ignored.
N	yellow	NN_CON and CONNECT set, but not NN_ACK. LOCAL is ignored.
n	yellow	NN_CON set, but neither NN_ACK nor CONNECT. LOCAL is ignored.
L	blue	LOCAL and CONNECT set, but not NATNEG.
l	blue	LOCAL set, but neither CONNECT nor NATNEG.
C	magenta	CONNECT set, but neither LOCAL nor NATNEG.
!	red	Neither NATNEG, nor CONNECT, nor LOCAL is set.
