I dunno.
Seems more limiting security wise.
Say I want to allow other staff alter smod.txt and permit.txt, but I don't want them to be able to modify say VIP.txt and IPblock.txt.
I can't (AFAIK) allow one and block another, I can either take entire *.txt out or allow access.
And naturally *g* and *s* has to be disabled.

I heard that new subgame releases are just binary patches/edits, so maybe some old stuff has to be taken out to make room for new stuff?
Even worse, maybe it's leading up to something "bad" in the future..

I read the same thing once...

But i don't think you have to remove stuff to do that.

Yes subgame is hacked but ya got this fix.dll and stuff.
I bet he simply found a way to plant a subroutine in the loop to exit out onto this fix.dll and that's where the extra commands&shit code is at, then it returns back to the main loop.

Yes, that is quite surely what he did.
