Post subject: Subgame2 [Permissions]

Here is what I originally commented before testing, with The Ghost Ship's help:

[Permission]
AllowBadMachineId=1
// Allow users with invalid machine IDs
AllowLowBandwidth=1
// Allow low bandwidth users
MinimumSecondsToLogin=0
// Minimum number of ?usage seconds required to enter zone
PermissionMaxPoints=0
// Maximum amount of points before you are disallowed to continue playing
PermissionMode=0
// 0 = Disabled
// 1 = Locked and requires name in permit.txt
// 2 = Permission to enter when you attain x points (must use a shared scoreid)
AutoPermissionPoints=0
// Minimum amount of points required to move on to the next zone
AutoPermissionIDList=0
AutoPermissionMessage=Congratulations
// Private arena message sent to player upon reaching criteria for next zone

So I start trying it. 0 works fine, duh, that's default.

1 works as expected as well.

2 is where questions come up.

Code: Show/Hide

[Permission]
AllowBadMachineId=1
// Allow users with invalid machine IDs
AllowLowBandwidth=1
// Allow low bandwidth users
MinimumSecondsToLogin=0
// Minimum number of ?usage seconds required to enter zone
PermissionMaxPoints=1000
// Maximum amount of points before you are disallowed to continue playing
PermissionMode=2
// 0 = Disabled
// 1 = Locked and requires name in permit.txt
// 2 = Permission to enter when you attain x points (must use a shared scoreid)
AutoPermissionPoints=0
// Minimum amount of points required to move on to the next zone
AutoPermissionIDList=0
AutoPermissionMessage=Congratulations
// Private arena message sent to player upon reaching criteria for next zone

// 2 = Permission to enter when you attain x points (must use a shared scoreid)
At least that is what it was supposedly. This does the same thing as 1, but it has to do something else too...I just don't know how and what. 2 should be != to 1. Also, I tried 3, and that's the same as 0.

What I am trying to do is recreate zone leveling from old times:
1. LAN Level 1
2. LAN Level 2
3. LAN Level 3

For Level 1, I want to require a minimum number of points to play in the zone to be 0, minimum number of points to be able to advance to Level 2 to be 900, and maximum points allowed before being disallowed to join the zone to be 1000.

For Level 2, I want to require a minimum number of points to play in the zone to be 900, minimum number of points to be able to advance to Level 2 to be 1900, and maximum points allowed before being disallowed to join the zone to be 2000.

For Level 3, I want to require a minimum number of points to play in the zone to be 1900, minimum number of points to be able to advance to Level 4 to be 2900, and maximum points allowed before being disallowed to join the zone to be 3000.

Also, any clue what this does?
AutoPermissionIDList=0

EDIT: Also using Subbill. Catid's SSBilling2 does not support sharing of scoreids.

Also, server.ini has these omitted (but are in the binary!):

SyncJitter=
AllVips=
CheckPrizeDistribution=

I think they go under [Misc]. There is also [Routing]

[Routing]
QueuePositions=
QueuePackets=
PosSendRadar=
PosSendEdge=

Default values anyone?

EDIT: And if I *addword subspace to obscene.txt and I have ?obscene enabled on the client, and said "Dude I love subspace!" -- what would happen to that message?

EDIT2: Misc notes for optimizing latency:
* Increase [Soccer]SendTime
* Set [Prize]S3CTakePrizeReliable=0
* Remove all greeting and periodic messages

Also, 2 lets you in the zone but requires you to be in permit.txt to be able to play in a ship. Not sure if I mentioned this.
