Question: Getting player names?
Closed this issue · 4 comments
I'm not talking about battletag, just player names... Is it possible to get them from the logs? So I can post into my back-end something like "Josh123 just won a duel against Yess456"
I assume you closing this means you realized the game-start event gives you their names? :)
Exactly haha my bad, I wasn't properly passing the players
callback. Thank you for this!
By the way, you should add a class
property to the object returning the players
on game-start
, in my opinion.
{
id: 1
class: 'Hunter' //or the in-game class ID
name: 'Chevex'
team: 'FRIENDLY'
}
I'm not sure how easy that is, but I'll take a look at the log lines and see if that info is easily parsable :)
I found a solution anyway;You just need to filter the zone-change
events for the ones containing data.cardId.substr(0, 4) === 'HERO' && data.toTeam === 'FRIENDLY'
so you get the object needed, then create a map for the different classes, like "HERO_01: {name: "Garrosh Hellscream"}"
and finally do something like yourMapList["HERO_01"].name
.
Didn't test it yet but that's a way... Don't worry about this
