Getting all the players who played in the server

[DanielVip3]

I'm trying to find a way to get the entire server's player history, because (of course) players have to be stored somewhere to keep track of their data and I need to get them for a mod I'm creating.

There is actually a save file (or multiple files) in the server's saves folder which contains that data, and it's actually a LUA file.

E.g. Documents\Klei\DoNotStarveTogether\161203439\Cluster_1\Master\save\session\6657207B1B83DB91

Each save file (without extension) will contain a list of players in a function called snapshot_fn in the tablefunctions table, for example

tablefunctions["snapshot_fn"] = function()
return {players={"KU_Nc1I9gHL","KU_ZWoAXOUQ"}}
end
savedata["snapshot"] = tablefunctions["snapshot_fn"]()

 

Of course, I don't know how to access that tablefunctions table or savedata table from a mod, since I don't even know if I can access those save files from a mod.

So I please ask you to help me find a way to access those save files and data; maybe you even know a better way to get the player history, but I couldn't find nothing by looking in TheSim and TheNet.

Thank you in advance.
