File Protection

[Mark Sir Link]

I was interested in creating a word filter that would find a list of filtered words on the client. However, I am afraid that if I were to do so it would be quite easy for other servers to overwrite any list stored on the client if they wanted to, whether it be for amusement or on accident.

It would be nice to see server folders that can only have its contents modified by the actual server to prevent overwriting files by other servers.

I think the most appropriate approach would be to store it in a dedicated folder server-side. They wouldn't be large files, so storage wouldn't be a problem.

Would love to see it done locally, so that the player could specify which words to filter on all servers - but this seems like the best method until some functions are made to support it better.

The file will save to default to the Graal/scriptfiles/server name/ folder. You can only read/write to your server's scriptfiles, so you can just save it there and then not worry about other servers messing it up.

Thanks, was unaware this existed already.
