Greetings all

I've just started looking at nexius and I was wondering if there is a way to password protect a dedicated server? As in make a dedicated server that requires a password to join.

Also is there any modding support in nexius? Is there a way to add user created mods to the program without recompiling the source? For example a low grav mod or ratings/ stats mod that puts an extra display panel on your screen.

Would appreciate any help or direction on this.

Thanks in advance Icon_smile

I think a lot of this stuff is already implemented.

There should be a list of cvars amongst other things around somewhere for this stuff. There is already an addon that allows you to see your weapon accuracy. To change the gravity use sv_gravity x where x is a number (default 800).

Look on the official alientrap forum in the development bit and you should be able to find most of what you are looking for.

Cool. Thanks for the assist. I'll try looking into it. Think I may have to dive into the code to enable passwords for dedicated servers though

There is no password protection yet, discussion at [url]http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2171743&group_id=81584&atid=563410[/url]

However, you can set sv_public 0 so that your server will not show up on the list.

As far as mods, you can change a lot by changing the game's ~1000 g_ cvars. If more is required, you will have to edit and recompile the game code, which is fairly straightforward.
