yes Does buying just a map allow you to join non trial only servers?

Asking for a friend who is considering just buying the Syria map to play on Enigma's server, but isn't sure yet which aircraft he wants.  If he gets just a map, can he play on servers that don't have the "allow trial only clients" option?  Thanks!

advanced setting for multiplayer servers - “Allow trial only clients” This can be used to prevent accounts with only trial modules registered from joining a server. Can be used to prevent ban evasion. Please note - this is disabled by default.

This is the info I could find so it would probably mean that player who owns a DLC map is no longer "account with only trial modules registered", right?

He can join a server but will only be able to fly aircraft he owns. So with DCS World only, he’ll have the Su-25T and TF-51D, the two free aircraft, available to fly.

That's good to know. So the "Allow trial only clients" only refers to aircraft, and not actual maps then?

@BIGNEWY Can we have an explanation here?

"Allow trial only clients" allows accounts with no purchases to join the server, this option was added to servers to prevent trolls who were just using free trial only accounts to create problems for servers. 

If you purchase a terrain you wont be a trial only account so you will have no issue joining servers. 

thanks
