Hi I miss the following administrative features in Obscurity/Hitloc-mod:

1st   I wanted to look up today who has changed on our server the Obscurityratio from 5 to 20 and left it in this poor state. But I couldn't find anything in serverlog-file except

dvar set obs_ratio 0.6......

dvar set obs_ratio 20

So it would be nice when the name who did this is also written to logfile.

2nd I would also like to have the possibility to disable functions in adminpanel so they can not be used by anyone anymore.

Regards Ninja

Surely it would be more productive to only add admins you trust... Plus some detective work could narrow it down - using the log you could determine who was online at that time.

We most likely will not add the ability to disable features of the admin panel, because the admin panel is pretty much already at maximum capacity (there appears to be a text limit preventing us from adding more content to it) and adding that would tip it over and break the game

I agree. Log file should still be able to determine who did it by seeing which admins were on at the time. Remove those admins you don't trust. Perhaps warn them all not to set the ratio to stupid levels, although 20 would just mean you would need a very good obscurity player to wipe a team out

I got attention about this issue because a player made a post in our forum that he gets an insane high score by killing an Obscurity.

Yes of course you can look who was playing at that time but really sure can you be never about this. Especially when there were 2 admins online at the same time it becomes hard. Okay I had found the responsible one even before I made this thread here.

Because of disabling features I mean simple serverside dvars which allows to turn some buttons on adminpanel off so it becomes impossible to change the Obscurity ratio for example.

Yeah I knew what you meant by disabling features, same restrictions apply
