Since the match making methods are split across several protocols, this page documents all match making related structures in one place.
Flags
| Flag | Description |
|---|
| 0x10 | Controls what happens when the owner leaves the gathering. If set, the server chooses a new owner. If not set, the gathering is deleted. |
Many games also use flag 0x200, but its purpose is unknown.
