Getting a player IP through CubeScript

[PhaNtom]

I'm working on a script that requires the IP of a player. Is there a way to parse whois or is there another command I should use to get the player IP for a certain CN?

Thanks.

I know you could with tools.cfg, but that probably wouldn't be the best method

Its not pretty, currently it involves using a recursive alias to scan the contents of $conline after a /whois is initiated.

I've suggested a method for silently returning player IPs via cubescript a few different times now, since its already possible with some (kludgy) cubescript, hopefully it will be implemented sooner or later.

I tried writing the recursive alias one, but it didn't work. Anybody know how to do it (preferably using tools.cfg)?

[Bukz]

I have not used tools.cfg in a while, but it looks like something like this (may) work:

[cubescript]
getIP = [
whois $arg1
result (at $whoisline 2)
]
[/cubescript]

/echo (getIP CN)

Thank V-Man for doing all the hard work for you with alias whoisline. :)

It exists already in SVN. Something like (player ip)

I see. <3

Thanks a lot, Bukz. I tried this, it was exactly what I needed.
