What information would you like to have access to?

This is a suggestions topic. Tell us what you would like to have access to! When we plug all the services we'll see what we can do.
Eg. "Have the list of the dedicated servers owned by a given player login"

So let's make a beginning ^^
Information which are in TMWS and which I would like to see in MPWS, too:
- Nickname in HTML formats (maybe direct in the Players->get()-request to avoid additional requests?)
- Rankings (Multiplayer and Solo-Player)
Additional information:
- What games the user has. Either as "TM², SM and QM", or as detailled listing of all environments registered for this account.
- Have the list of the dedicated servers owned by a given player login

Not sure if it's possible:
* Show the dedicated server login you provide with a script and show the current Track and Playerlist. As it is sent by the dedicated to a database i assume it might be nice to get that data back in a script and not through xml rpc data.

For what ?
I would have access to a function which returns if a player is online and if yes than return the server on which the player is currently driving (already talked about that in TMWS).

I asked to be able to authenticate a dedicated account, but gouxim replied to me that only players accounts can authenticate, not dedicated accounts.
So if you expect Dedimania (or other services which would need to authenticate a dedicated server), such info is needed (a method to check if a dedicated account is owned by a player login would be sufficient anyway)

Ah I thought this is possible because gouxim said that it´s the alternative of the community code. But of course this explain why you need this access.

I should have been more clear.
It's a replacement of the community code because with you can authenticate players with their Maniaplanet account on 3rd party websites, just like the community code did.
But ManiaConnect is actually much more powerful than the community code (and also much more secure since the community code wasn't at all

)
