how to prevent the use of light configs?

[Divogluck]

I want dark places to be dark for everyone. Is it possible to somehow prohibit the use of lighting off configs by players?

If your server is PvE, then you have to use:

# ../GameUserSettings.ini

[ServerSettings]
DisablePvEGamma=True

If PvP:

# ../GameUserSettings.ini

[ServerSettings]
EnablePvPGamma=False

Keep in mind, players will still be able to use some other configs allowing them to see better in the dark. There is not much you can do about that from the server, though.

Yeah, I already disabled the gamma. My question was about preventing cheater configs. Or somehow detect cheater config users.

Yeah, well, can't do much from the server. Perhaps a mod would allows you to scan their config, tell the server, and then kick them or something like that. The easiest is to make it clear with your players that such configs are prohibited and just spectate them if some are suspicious and you could easily tell if they have unfair advantages from how they play.

Okay. Thanks for the quick response)
