Hi there,
I know you are not really supposed to ask for whole solutions here, however, I could need some tips with the following:

I am making a GUI based game that includes searching other users even if they are not in your server, or not playing the game at all. When a player is found, it is supposed to display a piece of information about them. Is that even possible? If yes, how would I be able to achieve this?

Thanks for the help in advance!

It’s definitely possible. You can know a lot about a user, even if they are offline and not on the server.

I do not know how to achieve this though.

I guess you can try adding the info you want to display on datastore that saves when they leave and use that.

Use this endpoint for your requests if it fits your requirement:

endpoint: https://users.rprxy.xyz/v1/users/search?keyword=username& (used proxy for functionality in game)

send a GET request to that endpoint specifying your query keyword and the amount of results per request.

Its possible, you just need to search the PlayerUserID with ther name and after with the UserID get the account information

There are useful function :
GetUserIdFromNameAsync()
GetPlayerByUserId()
i hope this can help you. I think you have more function after for get more information on the Player Account but i do not know there name and i don’t found it so sorry :confused:
