I'm not 100% sure if this is possible, but it would be a really nice feature if you could access the PersistentDataContainer of an offline player. The only workaround currently is to add offline players to a que of sorts, so the data can be edited on login. |

@Phillip I want to be able to do this programmatically, not with an nbt editing program. As in, automatically when certain events fire in the game. |

It has already been commented that there are methods to complete the task's. Are you just being confused by terminology? |

This would be a great feature to add. Extremely useful. If anyone is able to, please PR this. |

I mean you can, but not using the Spigot API. Persistent player data is stored in the player's NBT file and that is readable and writable using an NBT editor program. The cases where it isn't stored there is when plugins use their own persistent data storage solution, but this change won't help you with that. Also, I am not entirely sure about this, but I think you can use the API to access a list of all players that have ever joined the server. |
