Summary0004371: cl_hideaccount seems to be broken or missing functionality
DescriptionAccording to'https://foss.heptapod.net/zandronum/zandronum-stable/-/commit/369f3fbf62b471473654122479c52ccc5f0ce243 [^]' , "The server now reveals the account names of players to the other players, unless the player hides the account with the new CVAR cl_hideaccount, addresses 2782."

Unless I'm missing something, this setting isn't working, and logged-in user accounts aren't even displayed with the playerinfo command when used on the server console.

The player's account is listed alongside other special info when you supply a valid index to the "playerinfo" CCMD (e.g. to see player 0's account, use "playerinfo 0"). Otherwise, "cl_hideaccount" seems to work fine; enabling it redacts the player's account name from themselves and other clients when using the aforementioned CCMD. The server can always see them on their end, regardless of whether or not the player's hiding it.

I see, I didn't know you could do that. Thanks. The wiki doesn't specify it either.
Maybe it would be good to print the account names next to all names in the player list quickly when "playerinfo" is entered without any index. That way you could quickly see the account name of every player on the server without having to manually look at each player. At least it would be faster for somebody like me. Depends on what you think though.

I think printing the account name next to the client's name would look fine when the CCMD is used on the client's end. I'm not sure about the server's end since their IP address and country code are also printed, so it might get too cluttered depending on the length of their name and/or account name.
