Summary0005171: Way to identify if file is part of game or came from a map/mutator

TagsNo tags attached.

afaik maps atm can override all files from a game. so this feature request should be rephrased imo.

Feel free to rephrase it - I can't see what is unclear, and am unable to edit tickets.

i would rephrase it to:

allow a game to hide/disable/"remove" all content (units/features/gadgets/widgets/...) from a map except the map itself.

(could be still better phrased but i hope you get the idea)

actually, the ability to control the map too (e.g. an sdz that displays only an ingame menu, regardless of map in script.txt) would be useful; and mutators as well as maps, would ideally be included.

but as far as this feature request goes - simply (finishing) implementing VFS.MAP & friends is all that's asked.

the intention is clear, but implementing VFS.MAP wouldn't solve it: the map could i.e. override the gadget handler.

Yes - to fully handle cases of deliberate impersonation (which is only part of what this bug report is about) slightly more is needed - see the (*) of https://springrts.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=91&t=34774#p577276 .

But that part is not what's asked for here, it can be dealt with separately.
