Post subject: When entering my zone, question about password comes up

i have my zone in green on continuum but when ever i try to go there i get this message

Zone Warning: mini battles

This zone is not connected to the central player database. You should
use a different password for this zone as your passwords may be exposed
to zone staff. Do you still wish to login using the current password?

[] Don't ask about this zone again [yes] [no]

thats exactly what it says plz what do i have to do

Please stop making new threads for every small question about your "zone".

It's not a big deal.
Your zone is running on your own biller, so, not the central player database, but your own player database.
It's just a security warning which you could ignore if you trust the billing server the zone is on.
Because it's your own biller, I hope you trust yourself enough to use your own password.
You can safely select the "[] Don't ask about this zone again" option and press yes.

Now, let's be a little more rude.
You're 25 years old, and you start "omg"'ing about such problems?
Meh, I'd expect you'd try to figure things out on your own and act a little less like the 13 year olds here.

Why is the SSC biller restricted again? It seems like allowing any and every zone on would help continuum more than hurt it... or would that use too much bandwidth?

Wouldn't that mean "newbie" zone owners, people with bad intentions or just idiots (well, that seems to happen already) get on the SSC biller and ruin the community more than doing anything good to it?

ruin it by getting on our precious public SSC chats? how would they ruin it?

All they need is a firm biller upgrade, and your precious chats won't be touched.

Make [Billing] IP=locahost and the Scoreid=7000 (your [Misc] port). Also, the [Directory] port should always be 4991.

What Purge really means is make the Directory Port=4991 and change Directory IP to this string without the quotes: 'sscentral.sscuservers.net 69.56.172.170'

I don't really know about permissions levels on SSC, but some zone owners can see information, they can ban or do some other bad things with a zone on SSC.
I don't think they'd really ruin it, though, but I think only allowing zones under a few conditions is good.
Also, I'm pretty sure there are only a few slots on the SSC biller (unless it'd be upgraded).

Subgame and subbill shouldn't run on the same port #, make sure they run on different ports, boop990.

Indeed. You might want to make the [Billing] port 185.

When your inside your zone you can press esc+c to edit your server.cfg. You can also look in your server folder for the server.cfg file and edit it in notepad. To add a custom map, make the map with the ssme client found here, http://www.subspacedownloads.com/index.php?act=file&fid=182 . When you ar done making your map open your server.ini folder and under [MISC] DefaultLevelFile= type in your new map. for example, if you saved your map as myzone you will type in DefaultLevelFile=myzone.lvz . You must save your map to your server folder!

What he means, of course, is myzone.lvl, the map file for the zone.

If you have lvz files to add, those need to go in your server folder as well, and list them in server.cfg (or esc-c) under [Misc]levelfiles.
