View source for Acl

'''ACL''' or '''Access Control List''' is a set of rights grouped together to create a list, they are defined in the [[Access Control List|ACL.xml]] file as <acl> nodes. These ACLs can then be added to certain [[ACL Group|ACL Groups]] to grant or deny these groups specified permissions or acces to server scripting functions defined in the ACL.
Example of an ACL:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
<acl name="Example">
        <right name="general.ModifyOtherObjects" access="true" />
        <right name="function.startResource" access="true" />
        <right name="function.stopResource" access="true" />
        <right name="function.shutdown" access="false" />
        <right name="command.shutdown" access="false" />
</acl>
</syntaxhighlight>
This creates ACL called ''Example'' and gives resources access to start/stop resources and modify other resources but denies access to shutting down the server. Players that are in group using this ACL will be denied access to ''shutdown'' command.
