Ok, my friends and I have a private server going right now, and are attempted to mod it for our playstyle.

We're going to play with the speeds of the ships, lighter goes faster, Weapon speeds (mainly just mines and missles), cruise speed (traveling 30k is boring at a 300 speed...we are thinking 500-600 cruise). We plan on putting the NPC regen shields, to make it a bit tougher, and nerf some of the cheesy trade routes that get you to lvl 39 in a few hours.

But what we think would be really fun is adding perma-death. You die, your dead, start a new character and try catching up again...but, since we're newbies with the whole mod server stuff, we're wondering if anybody would have some sort of direction with this? Obviosly it would have to be server side, and would probably have to boot the player from the server and delete the character.

Anybody have any ideas how to get this to work?
