This is incorrect. The data needed in allplayers, such as x and y, is not updated. You can get the level name through levelname (the lack of a period is not a typo), but it requires v6.

In addition, allplayers is not even available on the iPhone client due to the bandwidth which would be required to send out updates to all online players.
