Player Tracking
Automatically track every player that joins your server. See real-time player counts, session history, playtime analytics, and retention metrics — all without writing any code.
Player tracking is the foundation of Analyse. Once you install the plugin, it automatically captures when players join and leave, how long they play, and whether they return over time.
Setup
Player tracking works automatically once you've installed the Analyse plugin. No additional configuration required.
- Install the plugin — Follow the installation guide
