[b]Hello Community.[/b]
Since many game servers got infested by cheaters, I decided to write a simple yet effective server-side anti-cheat system.
The anti cheat system successfully tracks hacking incidents, messages admins about those incidents and treats the cheating players accordingly.
[b]At the moment the anti cheat system provides working detection for the following hacks.[/b]
[list]
[li]
[b]Unblockable Attacks[/b]
This hack works by exploiting an engine bug, and is currently the most game breaking cheat out there.
The hack triggers after the player starts a melee attack, it simply executes the attack from a different direction (which the weapon does not support).
The engine executes the invalid attack, but keeps playing the animation of the initial attack/direction.
So it's impossible for other players to block the attack.
[/li]
[li]
[b]Autoblock[/b]
This hack simply turns on the automatic blocking for the cheating player, even if the server has set it to manual.
[/li]
[li]
[b]Aimbot[/b]
Temporarily turns on the AI for the cheating player, which results in superb accuracy in ranged combat.
[/li]

[b]Known Issues[/b]
There might be rare incidents of false-positives, this is the reason why kicking / banning is disabled in the current version.
[i]However this can be changed by adjusting the variable "$hack_consequence" at script "mbac_init".[/i]

It's all up to the related parameters, which need fine tuning.
In order to speed up this progress I need as many server logs as possible.

So if you want to help with this, you can send me your server [i](using the anit cheat, ofc)[/i] logs.
[b]I promise to keep them confidential.
Your support will be very appreciated![/b]
