A project log for Minecraft server user count display

A simple display to show the kids (and me) how many that is logged in to our minecraft server.

I have the display up running. I did get some problems with lost packets when pinging the server directly from the ESP.

As for now I have a PHP script running on my webserver to ping the minecraft server.

Then the ESP downloads this page and set the server position from what the page returns.

In the spesifications for the servo it should have a pulse from 1 to 2 ms that sets the position of the servo arm. This pulse should be repeated every 20ms. When i tried that I got a lot of jitter and noise from the servo. I have an update rate of 1 second now and it is nice and silent.
