New functionality - player's country in script
« on: February 21, 2014, 04:46:08 pm »
I think that there should be possibility to check player's country in the script. If Soldat can show it in lobby then the script also should be able to check it.

GetPlayerStat(id, 'countrycode') -> PL, KR, TH, CL, ...
GetPlayerStat(id, 'country') -> Poland, Korea, Thailand, Chile...

What do you think about it?

Best regards,
Szaman.

AFAIK client gets server country info from lobby, which does not share any code with soldat. It's actually even written in another language.

As for checking country in scripts:

if you want to do that you could.
Country to ip databases exist.
Just get one and make the script take the player ip and look it up.

Any yeah the lobby is written in another language
