The Gabion Kernel is an highly versatile and advanced API for AMX Mod X. It features a component system which allows plugins to access its features. These features include: a centralized MySQL connection, help file system, effects system, player account system, admin control system, a status and information hud system, a Version Control System for both the Gabion Kernel and its plugins, and a wide range of MySQL functions. Other benefits of the Gabion Kernel is an extremely easy initial install process, and a system that makes installing different complex components as easy as adding them to the plugins.ini file.

This project has two major goals.

1. To make installation of different complex plugins extremely easy and painless for server owners.

2. To make a system where developers will have an advanced set of tools which make complex plugins easier & faster to make, and compatible with other Gabion Kernel components.

Requirements:
- AMX Mod X 1.75
- 1 (One) MySQL Database
- Basic HL Server Knowledge

Support & Help

v1.3x Changelog:
v1.30 - Added Version Control System for both the Gabion Kernel and its components (includes three new related functions). Added a SQL Connection Handle return function. Added a few new commands for the Gabion Command System. Fixed a security hole with the admin system. Added an automatic SQL Table Optimization Utility which automatically optimizes Core Gabion Kernel tables on startup or map change (controlled by a cvar) for slightly better SQL Preformance. Also includes some other minor adjustments and changes.
v1.31 - Fixed issue with player accounts not auto-registering. Fixed issue with Gabion Kernel spamming the versions table. Added a new command which allows players to obtain a new passcode. Widened randomization range of passcodes, making them more secure and random. Some other minor fixes and adjustments also.

Please attach the *.sma separately.

If I did that it would possibly confuse people that just read a little and click on the download. The plugin MUST be downloaded as one package or else certain functions will not work such as the help or configs. It would just create unnecessary problems which could of been avoided. That is why I did not attach the .smas separately.

Attach the zip, attach the sma, and attach a compiled version and you should be fine

[Emp`]

SweatyBanana,YamiKaitou: you are missing the point.

Minimum: you don't need to attach an sma.

No, I got that point before I even posted, but I thought it was necessary to post the .sma file separately unless an administrator or plugin approver states otherwise.

* Add SMA and ZIP (if applicable) files for people to download. Note: The only time you should not attach the SMA is if your plugin uses custom include files.
