How do I get the ping of a player? (in ms) (server sided)

[EmeraldLimes]

So, I’ve been working a project lately, and I wanna check if a player has either left on purpose, or lost connection.

I’ve searched and read some posts about this, and it was suggested to check the player’s ping before they left the game. However, I don’t know how to check a player’s ping, and the ways that I’ve tried hasn’t really worked.

Could anybody help me with this?
Thanks in advance!

Is there a way to make that server sided?

You would send a remote function to the server, and return how much time it took the remote event to fire to the server.

Could you provide a code sample?

How can I make a Ping Reader GUI?

Ping, otherwise called Latency, is how many seconds it takes to send data to another device, such as the server. Getting the player’s ping would need you to use a RemoteFunction that invokes a request to the server and the server will get back to the client: -- Server RemoteFunction.OnServerInvoke = function(player) return "received" end) -- Client local t = tick() RemoteFunction:InvokeServer() local ping = ((tick() - t) / 2) * 1000 -- time it takes in milliseconds You’d need to do thi…

Search before posting… If you reverse the server and client scripts, it will also work on the server side
