Protecting My Script
 
So I have a pretty detailed script for my specific mud. Other people have offered to buy it off me for in game items, I told them they could rent it by paying me each month in game. I was wondering if there was anyway to make it so that I could obscure the code for the script so that any triggers to delete or disable the class that im selling them they wouldnt be able to remove.

No. From a technical standpoint, you and your clients are on equal terms so anything you build to lock them out they and anyone else can unbuild to let themselves back in.

Salem,
That still won't prevent others from going through the script.
