Title: [Server side only mod] How to make unit classes unlockable against money
Post by: Fluffy on January 10, 2019, 01:11:35 AM
Hi guys, do u know if it would be possible to make unit classes unlockable against money and no more points like before, only by editing server files and not client ones? Thanks in advance!

Sorry, the points to unlock value is one of those things that must match on the client and the host file. If the client has free classes but the host doesn't, the player can select it but it will get stuck on the spawn timer. If the host has free specials but the client doesn't, the client has to keep getting the points.

Source: Tried this many years ago myself.

No problem, the idea would be to give always a minimum value of 12 points to the player, so that he would be able to choose droideka at any moment even if he killed himself a lot. And finally at the end of the game, substract all free points we gave  to him to his total points. Can this idea be achievable? Thanks in advance!

In regards to points manipulation, all you can do is change how many points you earn for different actions (kill flag guy, kill vehicle, kill ATAT, etc). Any other point manipulation would require exe source. In other words: no.

Thanks, it's a shame and it means that reversing would be the only way in waiting the almost impossible release of source code.
