Why do you think it doesn't store IPs ?
What value did you use for
userDataRetention ?
Did you set the
natType hosting setting to "2" ? (this allows the autohost to receive the IP address of all players who join the battle, not only the IPs of players/bots hosting battles).

i looked into the datafiles ...
so now it works i think in the documention there should be a hint that userdataretention need nattype 2. that was my fault.

Did you wait long enough before checking the datafiles (or restarted SPADS to force a dynamic data dump) ? SPADS dynamic data aren't written in real time in the datafiles, they are just dumped from time to time according to the
dataDumpDelay setting.

userDataRetention doesn't need natType 2. natType 2 just allows you to get more IPs (cf my previous post).
