hackers ruining lobbies

[floridabum]

why hack in this game? WHY do youhave to join my lobby and ruin it? literally went 15+ days and then some ♥♥♥♥ has to join and add 50000 to the quota. seriously.

[Be Gay, Do Crimes, Smoke Weed!]

To be fair, as somebody who worked as a contractor, it sounds accurate

[Plague]

its a PVE game, change lobbys, play with friends or play solo

1. these aren't hackers, its just modders who bypass the normal mod version tagging that prevents joining vanilla servers
2. there's not much that can be done right now against that
3. you should grab that mod yourself if you plan to play open lobbies, and just reset the quota on your end, if you're the host it WILL override it.

We've been dealing with hackers who can fly, auto kill other players with a command, and bypassed admin control and server host wasn't allowed to kick them.

I know it's a sucky thing but it seems if you at the least use LC_API a bepinex mod it has a little 'AC' going for it. auto kicking people with cheaty mods

[Nosa]

just now I was in a vanilla server and encountered a toddler sounding kid that "hacked" to get 22500 something quota, and that kid and the other people were just putting shameless excuses on why its a good thing.

I was in a server and a hacker made me say some really strange comment about children

A fix for most of the hackers is a mod called Lockdown. It prevent's anyone from buying anything, moving stuff, or starting the ship. They can still start the ship when everyone has landed, they just cannot start the ship ahead of time and land randomly. Also preventing them from buying stuff prevents them from giving you absurd amounts of money.

Another one you should grab is Lethal Admin. Allows you to moderate further than just kicking people. You can ban people and the mod will keep track of their Steam ID so they cannot rejoin. The kick/ban functions also bypass those stinky mods that prevent them from being kicked.

I would just recommend kicking anyone without a mic or someone who clearly sounds like a child. Those are your two main sources of cheaters.

unity engine is trash as its too easily injected for modders to create load of shady craps
meanwhile ppls still crying for steam workshop integrated. Imagine it does, there'll be lot more of hackers as it become more streamlined and killing the game before you know it.

[chasicles]

dealt with a guy who made us automatically land down int othe company then killed all of us. so i kicked him then we rehosted before makin it into space again.

A player shouldn’t have to mod their game to prevent cheaters from ruining their experience.

It’s on the dev to have basic anti cheat which isn’t asking a lot at this point considering how much money this guy has made off the game.

Riiight, those 6.5k he got after Steam, Unity and the Government took their share is gonna surely hire a host of workers, not to mention the big company headquarters that kind of FU money can buy...
