227 client logging (server feature)
Posted: Mon Jan 19, 2009 9:19 pm
I have been lately working on improving server side security functions (banning, logging...) and now I'm wondering what all is really necessary information to log about clients who have been on the server...
Currently it saves 5 last used player names, player IP, ID and Identity:
However such suggestions as "total playtime" are not possible or it would be hogging up enough server resources that it wouldn't be worth it.

But from server owner's side, is there any other information that you're intrested about or need (such as last time stamp since last login)?LogList=(PlayerNames="APlayer",PlayerIP="1.127.0.0",ClientID="364363",ClientIdentNr="436437")
LogList=(PlayerNames=".:..:,OtherName,ThirdName",PlayerIP="192.168.1.33",ClientID="6343737",ClientIdentNr="-7547547")
LogList=(PlayerNames="YetAnotherPlayer",PlayerIP="2.4.3.5",ClientID="757533",ClientIdentNr="7537347")
