    Hello,

    I don't know if I'm posting at the right place ... I'm looking for a way to get the player's client configuration for each player connected to a server. I try to block players modifying their FOV parameter (increasing FOV you can just see through walls ...)

    Do you know :
    1/ if the client send his configuration to the server
    2/ if oxide is able to retreive these informations and provide them for being used in a plugin ?

    It isn't possible. It is never sent to the server, it is the client's configuration. Unless that for some reason changed in Experimental, there is no way.

    That's a shame ... I discovered the trick of the FOV yesterday and it seems that a lot of players use that. It's not acceptable it's really cheated and I can't find a way to block that ...

    Best you can do is complain to Facepunch for a way to prevent it or a way of checking client settings.
