***How to stop people multi-flagging??**
***How to stop people multi-flagging??**
I have been playing a couple of time when someone has multi-flagged (having laser while flying with wings or any other two flags) and the way I see it, there needs to be a system in place so we dont have major cheaters doing that.
My question is:
Is there any permanent way to stop this or are we going to have to use the old baning process?
Thanks Deed

Currently, way too much of the game is client side - for example, YOU tell the server when you get hit.
So anyone with a little programming knowledge can cheat - for example, you would just remove the section of code that tells the server when you get hit.
The plan is to move as much as possible to being server side which should help prevent a lot of cheating.
Hopefully we'll see this in 2.2 with a prop-break.

this same thing happened to me on Missle War. A guy was using sb while he was inside my base. It is major cheating, and , as donny said before, banning them might be the only thing to do. If it ever happenes again talk privately to an admin or leave a report (Press z). Hope u don't see it again!

Isn't it possible for a player on "Missile War" to grab SB, move into an enemy's base, and start camping. Unless there are some special flag zones in place that are designed to prevent this, I don't see how this would be cheating, unless there's something else I'm missing.

Yes, this is possible with a modified cheat client, unfortunately... they sit inside the front corner of the base or below the WG and SW towers.A Distraction wrote:Isn't it possible for a player on "Missile War" to grab SB, move into an enemy's base, and start camping.

I agree with most of the people who have posted so far. The only way we can stop people from cheating right now is to ban them, but as most of you know, that isn't always effective enough. I am looking forward to the next version, where hopefully it will be a little more controllable. Have fun!

I agree, there is nothing--absolutely nothing at all--that is cheating about an enemy using SB while inside your base. I may already have SB before I jumped in, or, I may have come in with some other flag (or no flag), dropped it, and picked up SB. Are we missing something?A Distraction wrote:Isn't it possible for a player on "Missile War" to grab SB, move into an enemy's base, and start camping.
