EPOCH AH Questions with settings

[Chainsaw Squirrel]

Can I get a better explanation of some of these , what these options are and what they do .. in layman's terms
Some are easy to grasp .. others uh not so much :) 
Just maybe the best practices..

what whitelisted config patches do . is that a place we can add scripts that we have on the server besides what you have in there already ?

antihack_addActionCheck = false; // false to disable addAction checks    is this better to enable I assume for click actions right click etc ??

antihack_customVariablesCheck = false; // true enables variable scanning on missionNamespace again should we enable ?? and brief of why please

antihack_customVariables[] = {}; //Add global variables from custom scripts, example: {"MyOwnVar","CP_KK"} //Global Variables begin without "_" !!  ????

antihack_customVariablesCheckMode = 0; // 0 = Ban, 1 = Log, 2 == learning mode (only enable with trusted players in a passwored server to profile your variables keep disabled for normal operation)   Should Log or Ban on these ??

i will try my best to answer this. but i would suggest using infistar.

whitelisted config patches: this is the classnames of addons which the server will allow. this way if a player enables their own mods, it will not allow them on the server.

so for example

class CfgPatches {

	class Blah {
		requiredVersion = 0.100000;
		requiredAddons = {"a3_characters_f", "a3_characters_f_beta", "a3_characters_f_epa", "a3_characters_f_epb", "a3_characters_f_epc", "a3_characters_f_gamma", "a3_data_f", "a3_weapons_f", "a3_weapons_f_beta", "a3_weapons_f_bootcamp", "a3_weapons_f_epa", "a3_weapons_f_epb", "a3_weapons_f_epc", "a3_weapons_f_gamma", "a3_rocks_f", "a3_map_altis_scenes", "a3_map_vr_scenes", "a3_map_stratis_scenes", "dbo_old_bike", "gnt_c185"};
		units = {};
		weapons = {};
		magazines = {};
		ammo = {};
	};
};

in an addon pbo will be a config,bin or config.cpp

and the above code will start in that file.

all the required addons there would need to be in the epochah 

antihack_whitelistedCfgPatches[] = { section

 

antihack_addActionCheck = false; // false to disable addAction checks    is this better to enable I assume for click actions right click etc ??  

yes action menu things allowed, so hackers cannot add their own cheat menu items etc.

 

antihack_customVariablesCheck = false; // true enables variable scanning on missionNamespace again should we enable ?? and brief of why please

antihack_customVariables[] = {}; //Add global variables from custom scripts, example: {"MyOwnVar","CP_KK"} //Global Variables begin without "_" !!  ????

antihack_customVariablesCheckMode = 0; // 0 = Ban, 1 = Log, 2 == learning mode (only enable with trusted players in a passwored server to profile your variables keep disabled for normal operation)   Should Log or Ban on these ?? 

 

 

I have not used this ever but i would assume it has to do with using these to make scripts

again if you get infistar, you disable epochah completely 

i know not everyone has 40 bucks to shell out for this script, but some hosts include it with their hosting packages,

What about pbo such as ae3ai, headless clients, and other scripts etc .. should the pbo be listed there as well ??

you may yes, you will have to depbo, the files, then look at the config.bin files or config.cpp files and check each one's 

requiredAddons = {
