Hey admins,

my ISP changed my IP without notification after 3 years... and yes, i am delighted by that i`m running a temp server off the new IP but i will change the host for sure, since i got a lot of issues already, that one just overflood the cup.

Is there a way to change the IP adress of the monitored server to a new one so players don`t loose their stats? Couldn`t find anything in the menus, so i came here to ask for help.

Thanks for replies in advance

There is no feature to transfer statistics to a new server page or just modify the IP : Port of an existing page. If you have a new IP or join port, you must add the new combination.

There may be some feature in the future to help in the situation of using a new address. We cannot give an accurate time frame when something could potentially be created.

If your server is just as popular at the new IP, you will jump up in the rankings back to where you would have been. If your server is not as popular, it will go down to the same ranking in either situation - if the servers old rank was kept or if the server started at a low rank. Ranking is determined from a one month time period, so the server will be to where it should be in the ranking very quickly.
I am retired from GameTracker after 11 years and will not be responsive for support requests.

Nah, ranking i don`t really care that much, we are a small group of COD enthusiasts, where i host the game from an old notebook in my kitchen. So there is always some up and down in the server ranking. The scores and placements of players is what concernes me. Now i still host from the temp IP, but i prepare a data server so it will be hosted as dedicated soon.

So there is no workaround to that with a new IP, right? Everyone will start off 0 when the new server is online....
