------------------ SSB2 Documentation ------------------ Subspace Biller 2 is very similar to BanG (SSC)... yet there are enough differences to warrant some documentation. The biller manages all of the databases (user, score, squad, ban) for one or more servers - and ties servers together. There are 6 operator levels in SSB2: ---------------------------------- -General Users (no access - what normal players get) -Level 4 Op (Moderator) -Level 3 Op (SModerator) -Level 2 Op (SysOp) -Level 1 Op (Group Operator) -Level 0 Op (Billing Operator) SSB2 also introduces the concept of groups - for a collection of zones. All zones in SSB2 have a ZoneID and GroupID, allowing them to be grouped together for managability by a single operator account. SSB2 also does away with the single biller password. Zones may have unique passwords controlled by their group operator. There are 3 group influence levels: ----------------------------------- -Zone wide (influence in one zone only) -Group wide (every zone sharing the same GroupID - indicated by a $) -Network wide (all zones - indicated by a *) Some commands show different results based on the operator level of the person using them. Below are some commands with restrictions on different operator levels. ?addop (levels allowed to designate) ------------------------------------ -Level 0 Op (any) -Level 1 Op (1-4) -Level 2 Op (2-4) -Level 3 Op (4) -Level 4 Op (none) ?listop (levels allowed to list) -------------------------------- -Level 0 Op (any) -Level 1 Op (any) -Level 2 Op (1-4) -Level 3 Op (2-4) -Level 4 Op (2-4) ?changeop (levels allowed to change) ------------------------------------ -Level 0 Op (1-4) -Level 1 Op (2-4) -Level 2 Op (3-4) -Level 3 Op (4) -Level 4 Op (none) Finally we come to the command list. Some commands require a certain operator level (or higher) to work. Using ?man will display only the commands you have access to use (try it without logging in).
