==Overview==
The '''bz_BasePlayerRecord''' is an API class that is provided to expose information about a connected player to the plug-in.

==Data==
Class bz_BasePlayerRecord has the following data members:

; int version : The version number of this API class ;
; int playerID : The player ID for the player.
; [[bz_ApiString]] callsign : The username/callsign for the player.

; [[bz_ApiString]] ipAddress : The Internet Protocol v4 address of the connected client
; [[bz_ApiString]] currentFlag : The flag code of the flag to give to the player. The [[Flag_Reference_in_Plugins|flag code format]] is a string that looks like "FLag (+FL)" Where letters that make up the flag abbreviation is capitalized. So for example, Narrow is Narrow and Wings is WinGs. The content in parenthesis include a + sign if the flag is a good flag or a - sign if the flag is a bad flag followed by the symbol of the flag.
