Account Manager: Granting Private Server Access
Posted: Mon Jun 29, 2015 8:12 pm
All,
With the release of LaunchPad 2.0 comes the ability for admins to host Private server connected to the Public LoginServer ("Hub"). Since the point of Private Servers is to keep the public out, LaunchPad 2.0 and some nifty back-end stuff had to happen to bring this option to the community.
You may be asking yourself, "Well how do I allow people to play on my Private server, if I wanted them to?" - and here's your answer.
In the Account Management module I have just added the Grant/Revoke Server Permissions tab, which becomes available to you if your registered world is marked as "Private".
Basically, the player wanting access to your server will email/PM you their account ID (they get this off their My Accounts tab). You add the ID to the Grant list, and done. They can now pick your Private server from the list in LaunchPad 2.0.
To remove someone's account is just as easy - follow the instructions in the Wiki.
