  1. I'm a moderator of a Project Zomboid server. We used to be a whitelist server, but decided to drop the whitelist to get more players. This has lead to a large amount of people using Alt-Characters for griefing purposes. We are not exposing the Steam Accounts of the players, as they'd prefer not to have the Accounts public. This means people are griefing on Alt-Characters, without anyone knowing who's behind the character. While discussing this issue with a fellow moderator, we came up with the following idea: A server setting/configuration option, that would only allow 1 character per Steam account. Once you join the server with a Character, your Steam Account and the character are bound together. You will be denied access to the server when you try to join with any other character. This binding will only break when the character dies, or an Admin breaks it for you. You should be able to adjust this on a per-player basis. The moderators on the server prefer to have 2 characters, one being an Admin, and the other being a regular Character to play the game on without people calling us cheaters. I believe that this solution would help servers that don't want people abusing alt-characters, without ever interfering with servers that don't care about Alt-Characters. Since you can configure it on a per-player basis, your server can still allow 2 or more characters, but also allows you to set a limit on the maximum amount. The only way to get around this is to use a second Steam Account, but server Admins could just ban the second account from the server when they believe someone is using it as an alt. Kind regards, Terrordrone
