[FEATURE REQUEST]: Connect/disconnect callbacks/events

Submitted by niko_20010 on #1

<p>Hi, i have a heavily modded tpcast and want to power the HMD on/off based on if someone connects/disconnects.
</p>
<p>the VH server doesn'T have an event for connects or disconnects sadly though.<br />
would it be possible to integrate that stuff into the event system so i can simply throw a script or two there?<br />
or at least update the docs if it is already in there
</p>
<p>kind regards<br />

It will always write to syslog when a new connection comes through. So you could watch that with a script.

I dont have a specific event at the moment for when a client connects/disconnects

<p>two problems i notice with that build:<br />
1) the disconnect event seems not to fire<br />
2) the VH server segfaults (gets sent signal 11/SIGSEGV) on exit
