Persistence Players
A server-side roster of known players. Each entry is matched by Steam ID and gives that player a fixed identity every time they join or respawn.
What a roster entry gives you
- A display name, and an Arabic name for name tags.
- Roles such as medic, doctor, engineer or explosive specialist, applied so the game and ACE both treat you as that role (medical treatment level, defusing, repairs).
- A rank shown on your name tag.
- Left and right insignia are stored for future use; nothing draws them yet.
- Mission makers can add or override roster entries in their own mission, and the mission's values win over the addon's.
Checking who connects
The server can check each connecting player and either ignore, warn admins or Zeus, or kick when:
- the player's Steam ID has no roster entry, or
- the player's profile name does not match the name in the roster.
Saved identity details
Other addons (such as Immersion Documents) can save identity details to your own profile so they are still there next session; this addon only stores and reloads them.
Settings
The two checks above are server settings under Addon Options → TF999 Persistence Players. See settings_users.md for the full list and keybinds_users.md for keybinds. This addon has no keybinds.
