But that\'s Molecular Blue. Go to irc.freenode.net #planeshift and ask how to get Crystal Blue. It\'s written in channel topic there.

Xrypt, remember the only words you should trust are those that have an avatar.  ( See avatar\'s do have a purpose! :) )

Right now the cheat code is fairly limited. It does just a basic position check to see if a players velocity is outside the norms.   Of course this is very early start on it but at least we are thinking about it.

We have to develop a more formal method here to handle all areas of possible cheating.  

As others have mentioned we have really moved away from the Molecular Blue code base and many things have changed code wise.  But if you really are serious about it then I would suggest getting all the code out of CVS and building a local version.  Once you get that far we can point you to exactly where the cheat detection stuff is.

just make sure u keep them from running any third party progs, and macroing, those are gonna be the worst most likely.

i dont know hardly any cheating techniques because that ruins the game(s), and i cant program though im wanting to.

and so there are no questions about what i posted (hopefully), yes i know macroing is part of the third party progs

Hehe, almost off-topic, but ... cheating you said ?


First pic is December 28th, the second one January 1st, and two weeks ago this name wasn\'t here (registered around December 18th). Find the error  :D
And no - I don\'t care much about the positions on the chart, I just find funny that someone can be that bold when he\'s cheating. If I understood well, it\'s a kind of exploit and he already has an expensive weapon... I wonder how much he will have tomorrow  ;)

the way i look at it, they could just simply put in a reward system for submitting exploits and perhaps a better reward for submitting a fix?
