AntiCheat

[CineRuSS]

A well coded AntiCheat would be a nice feature.

I've got a report of some Players that there is a "Cheater" on my Server. He got fast speed and killed everybody with one hit also he created much debug messages too. Only I can do is ban his name and IP, but this won't help much. There must be a better bansystem like the game creates a guid and if I ban a player, his guid gets banned too. And a AntiCheat system that prevents players cheating.

Have the admin IP ban the hacker.

But it don\'t prevents the cheaters to change their name and IP....

I banned that Player... but he can join ?! oO

It is the only way to be sure it is safe if your server(s) are being targeted. Anti-cheat will stop some, but they always are ways to beat anti-cheat if someone tries.

Its actually rather difficult to get a different external IP from your ISP. Since IPv4 addresses are in short supply, they are not too keen on changin IPs without good reason. So if he does make it back on, just ban his IP again. It wouldbe far more work to ghange IPs then its worth trying to grief some people on a game.

Use sm:\"nick\" on your blacklist. Give it a test, and let me know how that worked.
