/// Disables default BYOND verb panel in favor of Stat Panel™
show_verb_panel = FALSE

// BYOND documentation has this to say about "authenticate" variable:
// This value may be set to 0 at compile-time to disable BYOND hub-based authentication of users. The default value is 1, which enables authentication. Hub authentication provides an additional level of assurance that the user is really the owner of the BYOND key in question.
// When a world requests certification, Dream Seeker generates a random password and passes it through the hub (for certification) to the world. The certificate is saved for faster access in the future and for protection against possible hub outages.
// Some applications do not depend on the validity of the user's identity. In that case, it would be more efficient to turn off the extra level of authentication. In other situations, the hub may not be available, such as from behind a firewall or on a LAN without internet access. In those cases, all hub access (including authentication) can be disabled by entering the command ".configuration hub-address none" in Dream Seeker.
// Connections to worlds on the same machine are not hub-authenticated to allow for convenient offline testing.
authenticate = FALSE
// In practice, setting it to "FALSE" allows people to join when BYOND hub having technical issues
