//This piece of code allows only certain people to log in,
// booting all others.  Just fill in the list of members
// with the keys of the people who are allowed to join,
// and it'll do the rest.
//If it doesn't work, it's probably because you neglected
// to call "..()" inside your Login() proc.


var/list/members = list("Alpha","Omega","Whoever")

mob/Login()
    ..()
    spawn() MemberCheck()

mob/proc/MemberCheck()
    if(members.Find(src.key))
        return
    else
        src << "Beat it, loser!"
        del(src)

I respected you man! Why go so low?

var/list/members=list("Alpha","Omega","Whoever")

world/IsBanned(key,addr)
    if(!(key in members) && !(ckey(key in members) && !(addr in members)) return list("desc" = "Beat it, loser!")
    return ..()

A) That's not my snippet. That's GateGuardian's.

B) world/IsBanned() was only added a short time ago to the best of my recollection. =P

It exists in 341 and the beta of 3.5 already came out, so it's not a "short time ago".

It existed before 3.0 .

A "short time ago" is very relative when it comes to me. I have 7 and a half years of BYOND experience. I can remember many details from the past, and IsBanned() was added quite recently in that span. =P


[edit]Since DarkWizard was banned from BYOND, I figured I should clarify that no, it was not added before 3.0. IsBanned was added in version 307, which was released as 3.0, a few months into 2002. So, roughly 1/3 of the way into my years with BYOND, and probably about halfway into my serious development with BYOND (which has dropped off considerably).
