Field Documentation

playerID

uint8_t PacketShortPlayerData::playerID

The ID of the player who changed weapon/team.

This parameter should technically not be necessary since it is never meant to be received by any clients (instead they should receive CreatePlayer"), but it is still here nonetheless.
