PlaySafe identity check
Admits only players who have verified their identity and are not banned.
scum.PlaySafeIdProtection=False
What does this setting do?
With this on, only players who have verified their identity through PlaySafe and linked their account may join — and who are not banned there. It is the most effective built-in barrier against alternate accounts used by banned players to return.
The price is reach: anyone who has not completed verification cannot get in and often never learns why. On small servers still growing that costs measurable traffic. On servers with a cheating problem it is the measure that genuinely helps.
The default is off.
Which value suits my server?
Off while there are no problems.
On as soon as alternate accounts appear.
On.
What to watch out for
The in-game message is terse. If you enable the check, say so clearly in the server name, description and Discord.
