Gatekeeper Pro
Version: 1.0.3Author: Martyn Gilbertson (2007)
Introduction
Gatekeeper Pro is a updated version of the Gatekeeper plugin. This plugin lets the owner create an approved list of users who are allowed to become wizards and gods on your palace. The point of this list is so that not just any user can overhear the password and login, instead they have to be pre-approved on this list. The list is known as a bless list, and the act of adding someone to the list is called blessing.Unlike the normal Gatekeeper however, Gatekeeper Pro allows each blessed user to choose their own password. This increases security and also helps your staff remember their passwords. Gatekeeper Pro also has an added rank, owner, which seperates palace owners from normal gods by giving them more power. Only users blessed as the owner rank can execute Gatekeeper commands. Below is a list of the ranks and their privileges:
| Wiz | Normal wizard privileges |
| God | Normal god privileges, can't control owners. |
| Owner | Normal god privileges and also gatekeeper privileges. |
Usage
After you enable the plugin, you must first bless someone before it fully goes into effect. The first person you bless will be the only person who can bless from that point forward, therefore we recommend you bless yourself first.How to bless yourself.
1. Connect to your palace and login with the owner password thats indicated on your panel.
2. Bring up the user list by going to Options at the top, then click Find User.
3. Click on your username. It will state you are whispering to yourself.
4. Now issue the whispered `gatekeeper bless command. Details of this command are below.
Command Key: The columns 1 through 3 indicate command parameters. The command and it's parameters must all be seperated by a space. The Whisper column indicates rather the command should be whispered to the user or not.
| rank | refers to either wiz, god, or owner. |
| pw | refers to the desired password the user wants. |
| hash | refers to the user's registration hash code. |

Example: Let's say there was someone I wanted to hire as a god on my palace. I ask them what password they would like to use when logging in, and they reply with "zeebot2". I then whisper this command to them: `gatekeeper bless zeebot2 god. It should bless them and they can now login with the password zeebot2.
