I think this is something for GetPlayerInfo more than anything. I think it as well could be expanded with a few things like ping, time and possibly ignore status. |

That'd be so awesome to be able to get player ping, time...etc
This may be far-fetched, but can we get access to IP:Port? Or is that too far? |

Putting this stuff in GetPlayerInfo is surely possible, but breaks with the current design. So far GetPlayerInfo only returns stuff in stored in userinfo.

Once we decide how to access the score info, it won't be any problem to extend this to the other information. I'm not sure though if it would be a good idea to allow a mod to access IP:Port. Privacy issues aside, reliably identifying a player with it is not possible, so what would you need this for?

Unless Zandronum features a login system where you can grab account names with ACS, there are programs out there that connect to the RCON utility and read/send data to the server. This could be used to store data based on IP, or record IP's that do suspicious activity into the logs. Port wouldn't really be essential though.
It could also be used possibly to get the server's host IP in game which can be used for lots of stuff.
EDIT: Does this coincide with:'http://zandronum.com/tracker/view.php?id=927 [^]' ?

Your suggestions what to do with the IPs are still too vague to judge whether mods should get access to the IPs or not. Can you give a specific example?

It's related, but needs to be done by a different function. Given a team number, 0000927 provides access to properties of to the specified team, but here we need to access properties of given player, no matter if he is on a team or not. |

GetClientInfo then? But that might not be the proper place for the score value...

I think the name GetPlayerProperty would be consistent with the just added GetTeamProperty and ZDoom's GetActorProperty, though we risk that ZDoom may use this name in the future. |
