```
Player* World::FindPlayerInZone(uint32 zone)
{
///- circle through active sessions and return the first player found in the zone
SessionMap::const_iterator itr;
for (itr = m_sessions.begin(); itr != m_sessions.end(); ++itr)
{
if (!itr->second)
continue;
Player* player = itr->second->GetPlayer();
if (!player)
continue;
if (player->IsInWorld() && player->GetZoneId() == zone)
return player;
}
return nullptr;
}
```
Why is there code that loops over everything rather than maintaining a map? what if theres 1000s of players?

why'd you need to find it by name specifically? you can find them by guid
