Possible to stop client side from crediting users?

Postby wildbunny » July 28th, 2011, 9:26 pm

Hi there,

Is there any way to prevent the client side of payvault from being able to credit coins or payvault items?

I'm just a little bit worried about people reverse engineering my game and awarding themselves loads of cash...

Cheers, Paul.

http://playerio.com/documentation/payvault/coins

"By default, you can use the Debit() method from anywhere to remove coins from a user's vault, but you won't be able to call the Credit() method unless you explicitly give a connection the access right to call Credit() in the admin panel."

Give works the same way, the default is no access from clients. The only time you would want to allow it from the client is through a secured connection that some sort of admin client is using.

Ahhh, ok great, must have missed that....

The reason I couldn't find the setting for this is because I was looking in the payvault config, but the setting is in the main settings area for multi-player :)

Cheers, Paul.
