Wrong country flag for my server: Iran instead of Germany (Nürnberg)
#1
Hi everyone,

my name is bitflip, I'm from Sweden, and a big fan of SuperTuxKart! I've been playing a lot and recently set up my own dedicated STK server to host races with family and friends. It's running smoothly otherwise, great ping from Europe!

The Issue:
In the online server browser, my server displays the Iranian flag instead of the correct German one.
   

The server is physically hosted in Nürnberg, Germany (Hetzner).
If I check it with some IP tools, it shows the correct location. Only in STK it shows the wrong one.
   

Details:
  • Server Name: Bitflips STK Server DE|SE|CH (private)
  • Public IP: 91.98.127.215
  • Server Version: 1.5
This is likely a GeoIP database mapping error (wrong country assignment for this IP range?).

Request:
Could the devs (whoever handles the GeoIP data/flags) please investigate and fix the mapping? An update to the embedded GeoLite/GeoIP DB would probably solve it for me and others with similar IPs. Happy to provide more logs/screenshots if needed!
Thanks a lot in advance and thanks for your great work!

cheers!
bitflip
