I cannot for the life of me work out how to use this, can anyone help me please?

It should basically just return the values for a player as shown from the scoreboard. Don't think I've ever used it, but I'd imagine you can iterate the table returned by net.get_player_list(). Goes without saying that its run from the server lua environment, so its not part of the "mission scripting" environment. Check the \DCS World\API\DCS_ControlAPI.html for more thorough documentation on that. I do need to go back and populate the wiki with more info on it, but ED has done a pretty good job documenting changes in there.

Thanks Grimes, until now I did not know there were two scripting environments, thought it as just one thing

There are multiple. mission, export, config, and server.
