Little Script To Give Netstat Info, Possible?

[d2a007]

I'm more or less wondering if this is even possible. Some background this is for a game and on different servers a special event happens from time to time, I need to know while in game if Im connected to the right server. Here are the manual steps"

1) I create a game on a server, then tab back to windows.

2) Click "Start then "Run" and type "command"

3) At the prompt I type netstat - n

4) I look for a IP that ends in 4000 so it is like this 123.255.123.XXX:4000

5) The XXX is the numbers I need to check if Im on the correct server. If it is the right number I stay if not I make another game and repeated.

What I would like to do is have a script that would idle till I kicked it off with say [F12]. When [F12] is pressed the scripts would run netstat find the IP that ends in 4000 then display the XXX it in my current screen or type it in the game chat system. It would not be necessary for the script to cut down to IP to just the numbers I need but would make it cleaner.

I'm not asking anyone here to do anything for me I have time this weekend to play with it, I'm just curious if Autoit has the capability to do what Im looking for here, such as run netstat without displaying anything on the screen, or lay text on the screen over a full screen game.

Thanks guys

Edit: I was thinking I was in the support forum, feel free to kick the noob If this needs to be deleted or moved I'm sorry.

There is plenty of "Clone hunters" out there, it's not necessary to create a new one...

(I assume this is about Diablo II)

#include <Constants.au3>
Func _GetD2Ip()
    $foo = Run(@ComSpec & " /c netstat -n", @SystemDir, @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD)
    $line = StdoutRead($foo)
    $var = StringSplit($line, @LF)
    For $i = 0 To UBound($var, 1) - 1
        If StringInStr($var[$i], ":") And StringInStr($var[$i], "4000") Then
            $va = StringInStr($var[$i], ":", 0, 2)
            $var[$i] = StringReplace($var[$i], 'tcp', '')
            $var[$i] = StringReplace($var[$i], 'ESTABLISHED', '')
            $var[$i] = StringReplace($var[$i], 'TIME_WAIT', '')
            $var[$i] = StringReplace($var[$i], ' ', '')
            $var[$i] = StringReplace($var[$i], '63.240.202.', '')
            $var[$i] = StringReplace($var[$i], "4000", '')
            $var[$i] = StringReplace($var[$i], ':', '')
            $var[$i] = StringReplace($var[$i], @IPAddress1, '')
            $var[$i] = StringTrimLeft($var[$i], 4)
            Return $var[$i]
        EndIf
    Next
EndFunc ;==>_GetD2Ip

This is a function i had written up, it returns the last 2 to 3 digits of your current diablo II ip

so say ur in

nn.nn.nn.123

it returns 123

or if your in

nn.nn.nn.95

it returns 95
