Re: It's all part of the game variant file

In Response To: It's all part of the game variant file (kornman00)

: No. The game variant data is uploaded to the file share. As I said earlier,
: the tweaking data is stored within the game variant, but it's not
: something they 'hard code' via their script. It's data in the same vain as
: player traits or loadout settings, except there's nothing that exposes the
: ability to edit this data like you can with say Flag Carrier Traits.

: Any time you change an option for a game variant in the in-game editor,
: you've essentially modded the game variant. The tools that I make just
: expose data which is not normally shown in the in-game variant editor. So
: using such tools would be modding a variant using unofficial means, which
: I'm sure goes against the terms or use, or at the very least is some gray
: area.

: The weapon tweaks housed within a variant are only active while playing that
: exact variant. You can't play a variant with the DMR's damage set to 0,
: leave, then go into MM and start herp derping everyone with a BR while
: their DMR shots do nothing to you. The tweaks from that earlier variant
: won't be active. This is what I mean when I say you can't cheat with a
: game variant. It's all per-match, nothing global.

Thanks.
