## Notes

note

-   PAWN is case-sensitive. GetPlayerIP will not work.
-   **SA-MP server**: This function **does not work** when used in [OnPlayerDisconnect](https://omp.itsneufox.com/docs/scripting/callbacks/OnPlayerDisconnect) because the player is already disconnected. It will return an invalid IP (255.255.255.255). Save players' IPs under [OnPlayerConnect](https://omp.itsneufox.com/docs/scripting/callbacks/OnPlayerConnect) if they need to be used under [OnPlayerDisconnect](https://omp.itsneufox.com/docs/scripting/callbacks/OnPlayerDisconnect).
