How to revoke a priv from a large # of players at a time?

[24/7minetester]

This may or may not belong here, but it's the best section I could find.

Ok. I have a server and it's ran by 2 people, me and someone else. Apparently when I installed the areas mod, it edited the server config file and added it's areas admin priv to the initial privs section of said file. Now I have to remove said priv from all non-admin players, and fast. Is there any way I could do so?

Thanks.

You could make a function on_join_player or so, that all players which join the game change their privs.
For example like this

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

minetest.register_on_joinplayer(function(player)
   local privs = minetest.get_player_privs(playername)
        privs.areas = false ---or what ever u want to disable ...
        minetest.set_player_privs(playername, privs)
end)

Where would I save this? How would I implement this?

Add that to any mod in the init.lua file.
Or make your own in your mods directory.

- Make a folder named rmpriv.
- in that folder make a new file "init.lua"
- Paste the code in it, and save.
- enable mod, and restart server.
- test by checking privs of joined players.

@juli Nice solution btw

Open auth.txt in a text editor and use replace all with areas, as your search term.
