anti-cheat in this game is pretty useless, if you run mods just disable all of them and whitelist server
Very useful comment, Ted. HOW do you disable anticheat in this version? They've switched to magic numbers with no documentation. All the previous guides are out of date. How do you disable anticheat for your server in B42?
I know there was a recent change to expand anti cheat settings. The old values were true and false. Instead of the old `type12=false` options

I'm not entirely positive, but I noticed your values had 3s, and the server I have is set up with 4s instead, I didn't explicitly change anything. I found an entry for the BadWordPolicy with a comment and seemingly related numbers.
# What to do with the sender of a bad word in the chat: 1 - ban, 2 - kick, 3 - record the violation in the database, 4 - mute BadWordPolicy=3 # The symbol or piece of text that will replace the bad word BadWordReplacement=[HIDDEN] # Disables safety system anti-cheat protection. AntiCheatSafety=4 AntiCheatMovement=4 # Disables character hit anti-cheat protection. AntiCheatHit=4 # Disables packet checks anti-cheat protection. AntiCheatPacket=4

- 1 - ban
- 2 - kick
- 3 - record the violation in the database
- 4 - mute

I doubt 4 would mute players for something like the old type12 (AntiCheatPacket=4), but is likely a "do nothing" or false equivalent value.
Why did it kick me for packet check when it's at 3 then
