Is there any safer ways than write on scripting files?

Starbish · **Author**

The reason why i want to know is my project.
It requires Main Server's IP / MySQL Databases Access Authority(ID, Pass)
In order to succeed my project, the main server's IP must be not exposured.
so i wrote that on scripting files but, the decompiler had been released.
if a project's user can get a main server's ip, MySQL Information by doing that.

Is there any ideas to represent it?

Sry for my bad eng

Put that information in your server's addons/sourcemod/configs/databases.cfg

Unless you're trying to hide it from everyone, including admins that use your plugin.

I didn't explain something.
I can't share databases.cfg with others.
so, i wrote scripting files on it.
the files will be shared but decompiler has been released.
so, the informations of them can be exposured by decompiling.

You were never allowed to share smx files without the source so there is no difference.

I know what you want to say.
if my project's user want to get a source, I'll give it him without my IP, MySQL Info.

No, you would have to give source that could recompile the same logical binary.

Nothing has changed with decompiler anyway, If you would have given me the plugin, I could just open it in notepad and find out the IP in 5 secs, doesn't even need a hex editor.
There is no way to hide something. Compiled doesn't mean it's hidden.
