Summary

This meta issue is aimed at coordinating the effort to complete SEGSLauncher (formerly SLAV) utility for us with the server.

v0.1 (Linux / Mac Support only with launching SEGSLauncher directly through Wine)

• Rename SLAV utility to SEGSLauncher
• Rework to follow design principles of SEGSAdmin (visual parity helps users feel comfortable)
• Accept a list of public servers to allow users to select a server to join
• Button animation (mouse hover etc)
• Read latest release notes and version number
• Online check
• Also allow a custom IP to be entered
• Pull in server description from community JSON and prepend to release notes text section
• Option to use local server (read local IP)
• Verify the client version is correct
• Verify that all client files are present
• Add app icon
• Workout which QML / Qt dll's are needed (currently using all for dev purposes)
• Workout why it won't build in Debug mode
• Reduce draggable mouse area
• Add minimise button

Issues

• Long (1 minute) delay until RPC times out if server has silent crashed (as connection is made to server but unable to process RPC request... changing timeout on jcon-cpp seems to do nothing

v0.x (Add native linux / mac support)

• Show server version alongside latest SEGS version
• Front end error handling on duplicate server names (add / edit custom server)
• Launch the client with command line options
• Create single user account within SEGSLauncher and utilise AdminRPC to create accounts on community servers? Hold for now
• Allow client to be launched using wine? How to do?
• Integrate with Qt Installer Framework for easy install and auto update checking / download.

Feel free to add any additional tasks or considerations here, and discuss below.
