I need to change my server's IP on gametracker

I just changed hosts and I need to change the IP on the gametracker list so that it keeps getting the stats. This is an urgent matter. Is there a way we can do this?

One option would be to use the DNS feature. To use the DNS feature, go to the original server and enter a DNS address you setup. When you're ready to change the IP, simply change the IP the DNS address points to. GT will check if the IP changes periodically. In order for this method to work, the ports need to remain the same.

Another option would be to use the Migrate stats function. To use the Migrate function, go to the original server and use the Migrate Stats function to select the server you want it to go to. This method will only transfer player stats to the new server, and will wipe any stats already on the new server.

To find more information, feel free to check the Help icon next to each feature.
