defmodule T2ServerQuery do
  @moduledoc """

  Querying a Tribes 2 server actually requires sending 2 different packets to the server where the first byte is denoting the type of information we're asking for. The first is called the `info` packet which doesnt contain much more then the server name. The second is called the `status` packet which contains all the meat and potatoes.

  The `T2ServerQuery.query/3` function makes requests for both `info` and `status` and combines them into a single response for easy consumption.


  ## Installation
      def deps do
        [
          {:t2_server_query, "~> 0.1.0"}
        ]
      end

  ## Usage
      # T2ServerQuery.query("35.239.88.241", port // 28_000, timeout // 3_500)
      T2ServerQuery.query("35.239.88.241")
