Description

Description:

This statement is launched whenever a player is connected to a MP session.
Variables _id and _name are set, _id being the session id number as seen in #userlist.
Note that as of 1.08, this command only accepts a code-string rather than code delimited by braces.
Note as of ArmA 2 version 1.02 this function returns also variable _uid with uniqueID of player.

Multiplayer:

The statement is executed only on the server, not on the joining player's computer, nor on any other client.
This happens even if onPlayerConnected was issued on all machines.
