get Ping in ms

how i can get the Ping from a player?

I don't think that's possible.

hmm sure? i think the Plugin "PingKick" had it , but i found this->

PHP:

public function join($data, $event){
  switch($event){
  case "player.spawn":
  $this->api->schedule(20, array($this, "join"), array(), true);
  $ping = round($data->getLag(), 2);
  if($this->pingcheck !== 0){
  if($this->enabled == "true"){
  if($this->pingkick < $ping){
  $this->server->api->ban->kick($data->username, "Ping was too high");
  }else{
  break;
  }  
}else{  
break;
//this function looks like a jet fighter lol :P  }  }else{  break;  }  }  }



but dont know what $data is, here is the full "plugin" , its only one php file

Oh, I never have seen getLag function...

me too but i think he mean it so:

PHP:

$data = new Data($this, "blabla");


and then he wants to use there own function -> Data::getLag();

Theoretically as you can obtain the Player IP Adress you can handle the ping yourself

What an IP is? An IP is an "license plate".
You can know how many kilometers have a car by his license plate?

No, but you can send ping requests to that IPort...

fsocketopen I believe.

Exactly.

Example:

PHP:

$tB = microtime(true);
$socket = fSockOpen($player->getAddress(), 80, $errno, $errstr, 10);
if(!($socket)) {
  $this->getServer()->getLogger()->info($player->getAddress() . " was uncreachable.");
}
$tA = microtime(true);
$ping = round((($tA - $tB) * 1000), 0);
$this->getServer()->getLogger()->info("Ping of " . $player->getAddress() . " was: " . $ping . ".ms");


That would ping the port 80

dont forget to consider some host ignore ping and some are firewalled

Yeah, you need to ping on port 80 for website/home connections..... Duh.

I would take the port of the mcpe client...

but what if the thing on 80 have slow response
and why dont see what the function $this->getlag() does?

As of PocketMine 1.4 onwards, ping is a value only known by RakLib. PocketMine and its plugins cannot know its value.
Using `ping` on an IP address may not always succeed. Some routers simply reject your attempts to ping it.

This will block the main thread for a period of time. This will lag the server.

This is something from PocketMine 1.3

https://github.com/PocketMine/Pocke...55a4f03e6de084967c971cd7/src/Player.php#L1061 Alpha_1.3 stuff
https://github.com/PocketMine/Pocke...55a4f03e6de084967c971cd7/src/Player.php#L1054

so?
extend RakLib or make a ping function?

So it is not possible.

Moreover, the value returned from `ping` doesn't return the exact latency between server and the client.
