Does anyone know of a way to track players who change their names?
I've thought about rcon tools etc, but I really want to make players in-game name changes viewable to the public, on our website.
I can query our gameserver database no probs, but not sure how to go about tracking name changes, as on each login, it obviously overwrites the player_data table.
I can add a new table to the database etc if needed, just not sure how to store names at logins, cross check against PlayerUID, and then show all names from any give PlayerUID :(
Anyone done this and have a solution?
I don't want to reveal players UID's to the public, but do want to list all alt-versions of a players name :S
