This function returns the player element that is currently using a specified account, i.e. is logged into it. Only one player can use an account at a time.

Syntax

player getAccountPlayer ( account theAccount )

OOP Syntax Help! I don't understand this!

Note: This function is also a static function underneath the Account class.
Method: account:getPlayer(...)
Variable: .player


Required Arguments

Returns

Returns a player element if the account is currently in use, false otherwise.

Example

This example checks if the user attached to an account is a player, and if so if they're alive. 

function isAccountUserAlive ( theAccount )
    local thePlayer = getAccountPlayer ( theAccount )       -- get the client attached to the account
    if ( getElementType ( thePlayer ) == "player" ) then    -- see if it really is a player (rather than a console admin for example)
        return not isPedDead(thePlayer)             -- if the player's health is greater than 0 
    end
    return false
end
