User defined custom rules (i.e. pro rules)

[Eriknoc]

I've seen in online matches where the host would tell everyone "pro rules" and people don't follow them for one reason or another. Sometimes they claim they didn't know or they just don't respond at all to other players calling them out, which many times forces other players to break the rules too to weed them down or take them out.

It makes no difference to me, but this got me thinking. What if there was support for custom game rules user defined files people can make that can disable the making of various units, buildings or accessing certain upgrades so people can't break the rules? Like how various missions will disable things.

There could be a custom rules section or sub-menu that defaults to "no rules" followed by the list of these user defined custom files that can be shared when joining a room (if players accept)? I imagine the definition of "pro rules" could change as the balance between factions would likely change significantly enough over time with each ZH update, hence my idea for user defined files.
