This is meant as extension on: https://wiki.openttd.org/en/Development/Design%20Drafts/Scripts/Capability-based%20API

In addition to having capabilities, GS would benefit from being able to instantiate controllers for certain objects.

For example, take a town. Currently either a GS controls all towns or it doesn't. By adding capabilities, as written in the wiki, it can either share all towns with other GSes or keep them all for him self. I would propose a more fine-graned method: instances.

Every GS has a function like: HasInstanceFor(capability). As example: HasInstanceFor(TownGrowth). The GS either returns 0 if it has nothing for this capability, or N with N > 0 for how many different forms it has for this instance. Next, OpenTTD adds up all the Ns, picks a random number in range, and selects that GS + index to handle that town now forths. For example: GetInstanceFor(TownGrowth, 2).

Phase 1 - Add crypto

• Add crypto library to OpenTTD
• Generate a single crypto-based unique identifier on clients
• On joining the server, the client gives the server his crypto-based unique identifier
• The server challenges the client to validate he is the owner of this crypto-based unique identifier
• On creating a new company, the server adds the unique identifier to the access list of the company
• On joining a company, before a password is asked, the server checks if you are on the access list of the company, and lets you in passwordless if you are
• The crypto-based unique identifiers who have access to companies are stored in the savegame
• Reloading a savegame on the same server keeps the access list intact

Decentralized local authentication

Use a public key (pubkey) / secret key (secret) to authenticate yourself with the server. At login, you authenticate yourself to the server. If you protect your company, this is done based on your pubkey. This means that only you with the correct secret can still join that company.

A server stores this pubkey in the savegame, to make company protections survive restarts.

Introduction

For a while now, we have been talking how we get our OpenTTD binaries signed, and how we would get published on Steam. There are many aspects to this, and I am trying to put all that in a single place.

Signing binaries

None of the current developers really has experience with this. So most of this information is collected from googling, asking on reddit, asking on twitter, etc. Please, if you have any experience with this and read here things that are wrong or could be done cheaper, let us know!
