a3wasteland How can I lock player into a faction between server restarts?

[Animatek 0]

Hi, again:

In my A3Wasteland server, the users belong to a fixed faction (Blufor or Opfor, except for Indies); everyone knows to each other and that create competition. That’s OK for us.

But, some time users exploit the fact server can’t lock into a faction between server restart, they play in the enemy faction, localize bases, and destroy vehicles for revenge o simple indiscipline. Then they bail out and wait until next restart. To persuade I restart once a day, every 24h, that’s not enough and s**ks por server performance.

That makes me crazy, because a have to check it every day databases, and ban users. That’s not OK.
I notice database saves the last faction we play, so how can I use that info to lock players? Please, help.

//client

[] spawn {

waitUntil {sleep 1; getClientStateNumber > 9};

0 = [profileName,player] remoteExecCall ["checkside",2];


};


//server

checkside = {

	params [["_profilename","",[""]],["_player",objNull,[objNull]]];

	private _curentSide = missionNamespace getVariable [_profilename,nil];
	if (isNil "_curentSide") exitWith {missionNamespace setVariable [_profilename, str (side _player)]};

	private _clientId = owner _player;
	
	if !(_curentSide isEqualTo (str (side _player))) then {
	
	   0 = ["End1"] remoteExec ["endMission", _clientId];
	   
	};
};

Not tested written right  out of the head..

store each players side in the servers uiNamespace as its persistent between missions
