but that's the thing. It shouldn't be like that. In my eyes there should be a easy to set command line argument that prevents updating the maps folder at the least. Not everyone knows how tonuse chmod or chown and I'm willing to bet many have no clue about creating new users and setting permissions. Even if that worked, it seems to me that you have to break through a fense with a tracker instead if just climbing it with a ladder.
