Player List

[Kane]

How about a plug-in that will list currently online players? Cluster support? Perhaps integrating it into the PrivateMessage Api?

you can basically do this with steam by pressing Shift + tab and clicking players online.

Well what im looking for is some information to go along with the private messaging api and the improved commands API. Essentially any API that required the use of Steam ID's, Tribe ID's, character player names etc, its not entirely easy to get some of that info, I have yet to find a way to easily get the tribe ID's.

for example:

• DoRespec <steam id>: Force respec (mindwipe) of a character.
  Example: DoRespec 12345678912345678
  
  
• DestroyAllStructuresForTeamId <team id>: Destroys all structures owned by a player or team.
  Example: DestroyAllStructuresForTeamId 123456789

or /pm <CharacterName> <Message>

install Extended RCON and use GetTribeIdOfPlayer <SteamID>

so what yer saying is someone making an api strictly for tribe n player information is not gunna happen?

 

[OwnProx]

ill do it for you later did similar stuff in rust

 

[OwnProx]

i have made it and its in the approval queue Michidu will approve it in some hours

 

[Kane]

Oh wow. You are some kind of genius! TYVM

[OwnProx]

this took about 2 minutes no problem dude

I wish I could understand how to utilize this API. I used to be a coder back in the day but have 0 experience with C++ (showing my age here) lol. If yer ever interested in teaching someone how to use the api in regards to creating, please hit me up! TY

Just a heads up that the command DestroyAllStructuresForTeamId was made specifically for ARK Bot and there is a UI for it.

we plan on adding full detailed tutorials / videos about creating plugins / basic functionality of the api and maybe even a doc sections explaining all the api tools and functions ect
