Have RCON return whether a player is alive or not

20 votes

It would be useful to return the alive/death status for a player in the RCON response. This is interesting to show when outputting the status of the game. Or for other mechanisms like auto switching between teams mid-game without disrupting players that are still alive.

I could imagine having a this status being part of the InspectPlayer response and having a field that would say alive/dead or alive/dead/idle (for new joiners).

I haven't looked at what rcon returns, but the other context is - if a player joined SND, are they in the round alive, dead, or spectating before their first round?
