So this isn't the same hash as is in your registry?

Basically you would take the serial, hash it (with a different algorytm than renegade uses to put it in the registry) and then exchange the hashed serials with other server owners. That way there's no more need to wait for Xwis to free the id's.

Actually, if Get_Player_Serial uses the SAME algorithm as the Renegade client, we could use the serial, client IP, and nickname in a 2-out-of-3 majority-AND authentication scheme for players (banning, moderator rights, protection against nickname theft).

But it would also mean that I as server owner could copy-paste it in my registry?


You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord
