Editing Init server

'''Init server''' is the initial web server used to determine the [[Master server|master server]] to use by the game. There is always only one instance of an init server, except in [[Trackmania Turbo (2016)|Trackmania Turbo]] where there's one init server for every platform - PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. The communication is done using a Nadeo's proprietary standard via the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XML XML] protocol.

In [[Maniaplanet]], there's an exception that the first request is not done to the init server. It first looks for the relay02 server, and if it fails, then it looks for the init server.

Init servers are no longer used for [[Trackmania 2020]].
