Setting up XMPP client on phone, For light weight lobby lurking.

[CringeForumLurker]

At times there aren't many people playing in the 0ad lobby, but i want to remain in the lobby so that I can check time to time for available players. I dont want to keep laptop turned on all the time. I have previously seen a youtube tutorial (which I cant find now)  on how to join lobby using any XMPP client software in android.

I tried to do it myself by attempting to connect to cringeiberian@lobby.wildfiregames.com at port 5222 using the same password that is used to connect to lobby. But it gives Authorization Error. What am i doing wrong?

Use the hashed (encrypted) password from saving the password in user.cfg after a successful login with 0ad. Don't use the plaintext password with a third party XMPP client.

If you don't see any games in 0ad it's because you still have an XMPP client connected in the background. Disconnect it, then reconnect 0ad to the lobby. You'll see games.

Please behave, don't impersonate others, don't spam, and follow all the rules of the lobby.

Thanks, I successfully logged in. I observed i can only see people chatting and joining the server in the arena26, is there anyway i can also get a list of hosted games? and can i join and chat inside those hosted games using XMPP client?

Regarding rules of the lobby, where can i get authorization to use multiple accounts.
