The first parameter is already the object of the player/RC/IRC that leaves.

PlayerLogout is called for more than just players and RCs, so you may want to do something like this to make sure you're only getting players and RCs:

PHP Code:

function onPlayerLogout(pl) {
  if (! pl.account.length() > 0) {
    return;
  }
}

Ah.

I think it's weird that findplayer allows objects as input D: Graal Script is way too.. 'soft' if you ask me :o

It's not so much "allowing objects as input", it's just a consequence of variant typing. When you pass an object to something where there should be a string, it is just taking the name of the object and passing that instead. In this case, the account name is the name of the object.

Fixed.

onPlayerLogout is only called for players, it's called on the actual logout and when a player is switched to observer mode

Are you 100% sure of that? I'm pretty confident in having had non-TServerPlayer objects trigger that function.

That's the same as doing findplayer(findplayer("Chompy").account); :o?

But yeah, I guess it's kinda neat to have, for example when comparing: if (player.level == "osl.nw")

Which can go horribly wrong. I have experienced quite some bugs with that.

I have too. I think it would be best to always use .name (or .account in this case). Even if it doesn't improve the script, it makes it easier to understand, especially to new scripters.
