Re: How to cheat in crossfire v 0.91.5



 Keeping maps aroudn for 24 hours would be a very bad idea.

 Because suppose a player clears out some level, pickups up the items, and
saves in the treasure chamber.

 (then crashes the game.)

 If that map is not reset for 24 hours, it means no other players can go
on that quest/map. (or at least not gain the treasure if they do.)

 And this may not be an intentional thing.  Maybe someone is playing,
and the game crashes.  Player figures he will start again
tomorrow (maybe just because the server has to be manualy
restarted, or because this is as convenient as any
time to quit.)

 The best solution is to fix the game crashes.  I have gotten one
more way that players can kill the server, and
will likely fix that.  If the players have a way of intentionally
killing the server, it should be easy to track down and
fix.
