Hacked - Change Sessions.
It only gets worse from there.
Happened to me twice. Do I risk something ?
Unknown - when I see my horse's feet on fire I change sessions 'cause I KNOW there's a hacker in the game.
When I change sessions I leave him in the Session I left.
I lose my Super Duper Stew<---I can make more stew<--in fact the hacker helped me get 250 more XP for making another batch.
They are still sub-human, but good on them for making it fun for others.
Pick up their 'Gifts' of Money and Gold and you can be banned.
When a hacker is in the Session - it goes downhill from there.
Change Sessions.
Too many Hackers to avoid?
Play Solo Lobby.
Your choices are limited to 2:
1) Change Sessions
2) Solo Lobby
ESC > Online > Free Roam | Camp | or one of the Events | or one of the regional spawn points
Ha ! Nice.
Be wary of receiving gifts from modders. There are known bans for this.
If you know for sure who is the problem player; if possible bring up their SocialClub profile and click the tiny 3 dots for Options; then Block the person. Then as you continue to play the SocialClub system will avoid putting you and any blocked players into a session together.
If everyone is using the same 'password' in startup.meta
I think it's an 'Auto-Join' to the session that's running it.
(don't quote me on that - I don't have any friends - still living...lol)
So make password, something else.
Make it something that you would not mind sharing with friends of others online whom you speak privately to who you'd like to be in the same private session with.
Again, here is what goes into the STARTUP.META file
