PS4 HOSTING REFACTOR PASS 1:[]
- Wifi users will be forbidden from hosting via Quick Match
Wifi users will be marked as not viable hosts early on in the hosting qualification determination sequence. This only affects Quick Join/Match, Private Matches are unaffected entirely. Can be disabled via the ini flags.
- Added function to check if the current console is on eth or wlan.
This function allows us to ping the current netadapter to figure out what process is used. It’s a part of the Online Subsystem, and is usable in C++. Only PS4 has this implemented.
- Added new config flags that can turn off these features as needed.
bPreventWifiHosts (true) – by default starts filtering users who have wifi to not be used in host determination and will get a heavy rating against them HostSelectionWifiPenalty (60.0f) – Users who are on wifi get this penalty applied to them (higher means will be ignored for other clients) HostSelectionStrictNatPenalty (125.0f) – If a user is on a strict NAT, apply this penalty to them.
- Removed depricated host determination/migration code
Lots of script code was deleted due to deprication. It is not used currently and is taking space/being confusing.
