Server update time

Why update server comes with such a long delay? About 5 minutes. Banner misleading players. When you look at the server online - you see one. And when you come to the server - the server can even be empty.

How to change this time updates?

That is the way it works, there is nothing to change.

Gametracker is currently scanning over 144,000 servers. That takes time.

No trouble.
It is a common misconception. It is not real time scanning as much as gathering statistics.

In fact, the values you see on a server page are (normally) not the last scan, but the one before it, as Gametracker must also perform all the calculations prior to updating the pages.
