King Arthur's Gold uses a system called 'Security Levels' (or 'seclevs' for short) to manage player access to various features on its servers. There are default, hardcoded levels setup but it is strongly advised that server owners take the time to setup their own specific seclev definitions, the details of which are described on this page.

Advanced Usage

Because you can restrict access to every /rcon command, including /login itself, its possible to create two levels for your administrators that they can swap in and out of according to need.

To do this, first ensure that none of your non-admin levels have 'login' in their commands list. Then add 'login' (or 'ALL') to your lower-level admin seclev and make sure that it is assigned to your administrators by adding their names to the users list. Also ensure that your higher-level admin seclev is not assigned to your administrators by name but is assigned to the 'rcon' role and that it has 'logout' (or 'ALL') in its commands list.

Now when your administrators join your server they will have access to all their normal admin powers by default, but will be able to go up a level by logging into rcon (and back down again by using /rcon /logout). As they are the only ones with access to /login you can safely keep the password very easy to remember, too. You may find it useful to include features that you would only want to have active temporarily in this higher admin level - like invincibility.

Default Levels

The default, hardcoded levels are equivalent to the following security level files:

name = Server Admin
users = 
roles = rcon;
commands = ALL;
features = admin_color; always_change_team; ban_immunity; editor; join_full; kick_immunity; map_vote; mark_any_team; mark_player; name_mouseover; pingkick_immunity; silent_rcon; skip_votewait; spectator; view_collapses; view_console; view_rcon;
name = KAG Staff
users = 
roles = kagstaff;
commands = ban; banhost; banid; freezeid; help; kick; kickhid; kickhost; kickid; listbans; login; msg; nextmap; players; restartmap; swapid; unban; unbanhost; unfreezeid;
features = always_change_team; ban_immunity; join_full; kick_immunity; map_vote; mark_any_team; mark_player; name_mouseover; pingkick_immunity; skip_votewait; spectator; view_collapses; view_rcon;
name = Guard
users =
roles = guard;
commands = ban; banhost; banid; freezeid; help; kick; kickhid; kickhost; kickid; listbans; login; players; swapid; unban; unbanhost; unfreezeid;
features = always_change_team; join_full; map_vote; mark_any_team; mark_player; name_mouseover; pingkick_immunity; skip_votewait; spectator; view_collapses;
name = Normal
users =
roles =
commands = help; login;
