Check when a player was last seen

[DustyPorViva]

This little script can show you when a player was last seen on a server. Seems to work from my testing.

A few variables to note:
temp.timeoffset = minutes to offset the time by. This was tested on UN, so I had to offset the time by 23 minutes.

temp.timezone = hours to offset for timezone. I had it set up to 5 to match GMT time.

The above may be wrong, however. It doesn't seem right to ADD the offset of time, as that means the clocks are behind and they're typically ahead... but whatever. Also, account names are case sensitive. This has to do with the way offline player objects are loaded, and really beyond my control unless anyone can come up with a fix.

PHP Code:

function onPlayerLogout(pl) {
  pl.clientr.seenlast = timevar2;

  // HMM, BACKUP IN CASE ABOVE FAILS?
  temp.loadedacc = new TServerPlayer((@pl.account));
  loadedacc.clientr.seenlast = timevar2;
  loadedacc.destroy();
}

function onActionServerside(cmd,acc) {
  if (cmd != "LastSeen") return;

  temp.pl = new TServerPlayer((@acc)); // LOAD OFFLINE PLAYER OBJECT

  // IF PLAYER HAS NO RECORDS OF LOGIN, GIVE ERROR AND RETURN
  if (pl.clientr.seenlast == 0) {
    player.chat = acc SPC "has no login records.";
    pl.destroy();
    return;
  }
  
  temp.timezone = 5;    // TIMEZONE OFFSET, 5 = GMT
  temp.timeoffset = 23; // MINUTES OFFSET TO COMPENSATE FOR SHODDY SERVER CLOCKS

  // COMPILE RETURN MESSAGE
  temp.time = (findplayer(acc) == null ? pl.clientr.seenlast : timevar2)+(timeoffset*60+(timezone*60*60));
  temp.msg = acc @ " was last seen:" 
             SPC formatTimeString("%D %I:%M%p",time)
             SPC "gmt" SPC (findplayer(acc) == null ? "" : "[logged in]");

  player.chat = msg;          // ECHO TO PLAYER'S CHAT
  player.sendrpgmessage(msg); // ECHO TO PLAYER'S F2 WINDOW

  pl.destroy(); // DESTROY PLAYER OBJECT WHEN DONE
}
//#CLIENTSIDE
function onPlayerchats() {
  if (player.chat.starts("/lastseen")) {
    temp.acc = player.chat.substring(10);
    triggerServer("gui",name,"LastSeen",acc);
  }
}

This will always fail. The player object given is read-only at this point.

Also, why are you creating the player object even if the player is online? o.o

I was originally not doing so, as I had a check to return if the player was online but I had removed it and didn't bother to clean up.
