Yes. On Control-NPC, I have this party system that I wish to remove the person from the party when they leave the server. I resolved that by doing a timeout loop. I do not believe that timeout loops are the best technique, provided that I can do it with a onplayerlogout.

It has actually caused quite considerible lag in the past, I do believe (when players use it as a chat room, and there are 30 players actively talking?)

Yea. It would be a lot neater... Such as -- I'd be able to access the other player's health stats, and perhaps make a heat-sensor a lot dimmer when they have low health, or perhaps other stimuli for it.

Okay -- That should do... Although, it does work after the Database NPC was updated.
