Sim Access Control System

Introduction – How it works

The whole system connects to a server. The server has the following lists.

·       Rules: Avatars that agreed to the sim rules.

·       Users: Avatars are allowed to use items connected to the server.

·       Admins:  Avatars can change settings on items connected to the server.

·       Banned: Avatars are banned from using items connected to the server.

·       Groups: Groups are given user-level access items connected to the server.

Multiple servers can be set down, each with one or more groups assigned. This allows different roleplay groups in the same region to have their own access lists, rules and groups. Each server is assigned a number, and items connected to that server must be set to the same server number. There is also a region relay for connected sims.

Introduction – Connected Sims

The region relay is functional when one roleplay group spans multiple regions. If the access lists are updated in one area, the updated information is relayed to the server with a matching server number in the connected region through the relay. That server then updates all items connected to it.

Introduction - Access Controls

The following access options can be set for all items: everyone, everyone except banned, List, Group (multiple), Group and list.

Introduction - Props

The Covey Role Play system comes with props you can use. They are all PBR and standard materials are enabled so that they will work with newer and older viewers. However, the scripts can be added to your items if you prefer. Use of the props is optional.

Using Your Own Items

First, drop in the ‘Set LinksetData Defaults’ script to use your items. It will tell you they are set and self-delete. Then add in the scripts for the item you are creating.
