Everyone can edit your map change credits ETC
Snow can be easily turned off so there is no any protection from fakers...
I think something like password must be added

OfflineMaybe you can see the map, but you cant edit it.
But if you can read there is a maintopic from the next version of CS2D *Klick*

Yates has writtenDC already said, that if you don't want people to edit your maps, don't make them.
I think its kinda... stupid?
To paraphrase: LOL NO WAY.
Aythadis has written(cause there was a password locking in the very old versions)
I never played that version, but I assume the password was stored in the map file. If it isn't encrypted in some way it would very easy to get it.
Personally in my own opinion I think people who map protect their map is just insecure.
So what if a map is edited? Tiles were probably not made by yourself, it's a 2d game, and your map probably sucks anyway. Get over it. (To people who actually want this function in cs2d)
Apache uwu has writtenlol @ yates

Apache uwu has writtenWell yeah, cs2d still need to be able to read it.

Ok I want to know if I get it
For you it's ok if I, for example:
Take any file I want, something like this 
Transcript Lua Experiment 1.07 [TLex] (66)Edit everything I want, for example, I can add a msg saying something like "..Script name here.. by ..Someone's name here (i.e. me)", and I can delete any trace of ..insert original creator's name here..Use it on any server adding a download link of the file as ..Someone's name here.. creation (not uploaded in Unreal software).And those are the steps to get a file's credits without any big effort (ok, the step 3 isn't really necessary).
of course this is just an hypothetical case, but if I get it, for you it's ok since you aren't insecure.
File does not exist (7684)Also if you compile your lua scripts you're insecure.
I doubt it has come to the point that there needs password protection just yet. Just think about it.
It would feel rather lame actually, it has happened alot that some guys want to improve my map, and they forget to add credits to original author of the map but still I think map protection is like adding too much locks on your door (metaphorically speaking), so there's no point in doing that. Really I doubt that it would even protect your maps unless you're encrypting the maps with AES and doing more than just apply password protection to the maps.
