Hi PBBans ! not sure if this is the correct place to ask this question, so appologies if i've asked it in the wrong forum. I'm manually parsing the content of a pbucon.log file for various server types. Right now, we're parsing BF3 log files. I'm trying to figure out / confirm why the (woeful) pbucon.log format fails to record any disconnects between a round finishing and a new round starting. Here's an example of some log data from last night... Please note the times....

There's no text that suggest a server has restarted. So i'm *guessing* this is the end of a round / a new round has started. But .. some of the players from the previous round (if this is a new round, starting) haven't reconnected back. Basically, everytime a player connects, we get the -> New Connection -> PBGuid confirmed. -> Disconnection (at some point, later). But in the above .. some players connect, get the pbguid calculated ... but no disconnection! Some investigation leads me to believe that the last piece of information for these 'ghost' players is that they were last seen in that player list .. and then the player list is suddenly ZERO PLAYERS .. and they've never popped back up in the log file. Can anyone confirm what i'm thinking here? Is there anything that can be done? Please do not suggest i start using the PLAYER LIST data as the way I determine if a player is connected or not -> i'm going to get into a debate about that, please. Can anyone help? Or is there someone/someplace else I can direct this enquiry to?
