Is there a addon to make it so people can not save your map? I am constantly worried that my map will be stolen by someone. An addon like this would be very handy for this occasion. anyone know of one?

There was a topic about an anti-save feature. I believe badspot said "If you don't want people to save your stuff, play in single player."

Can't be done and I believe BadSpot said it won be done somewhere I cant remember... BTW if some1 steels your map so what... whats the worst they can do? host it?

They could host it and take the credit for it (which would suck cause I've spent almost 1 month on this map)

Lol he's got a point there. Do people even steal maps that often?

Only idiots like Sk8rG4meFr34k do.

Badspot didn't allow that from what I remember.
As long as you have a topic for it and they know you made it, you don't need to worry.

A topic on the map? Like in gallery?

If it's a build, put it in the gallery.

If it's an actual map, put it in the maps section once you finish it.

Its a build, and a nice one at that. I will try to put it into the gallery, but i have never done anything like that before. Do i jsut give the title of the map (TDM Arena) and show some pics?

I occaisionally save the maps of others but only when the server is goin down shortly (that way at least SOMEONE has any lost builds)

Someone was on to something about the saving stuff, saying there could be an addon where you needed to ask others for trust before you can save.

But since Badspot wont allow that kind of thing its no-go, bro. Unless you use only custom bricks not available anywhere else, or use a UI name modification so no other system will recognize the brick...

Event your name into bricks throughout the server that only you know the location of if you're so paranoid about it.

Mack Attack · August 28, 2011, 09:57:09 PM

What do you mean buy event my name into the bricks? What would the event line for that be?

Idk what he means but if he is suggesting setting every single frickin brick with somethin like "On _____, SetBrickOwnership, Mack Attack" or whatev but anyone can get around that by turning off Save Wrench Events.
