issue with cheaters

[JABBA69R]

anyone else having issue with users using cheats to wreck the game? had a guy come in with god mode and he dumped 700k store credits on my file, had to kill myself a bunch to clear the credits and lost a bunch of levels, seen wemod had a trainer for the game so can we get an anti cheat system please.

I'd argue having a public lobby isnt wise?
But i dont know if a trainer From WeMod or CheatHappens would be able to effect a lobby if they are not the host.

You could check popular sites like unknown they might,

EDIT TO ADD
I am not saying to cheat, im saying they might be the culprit.

Use Steam Forums to find people, its more reliable than depending on completely random people.

Even then its still considered random.. Just with extra steps.

I was host of that match, it was me and a friend playing with two randoms when it happened so the cheats affect everyone in the lobby.

I understand that, im just saying i dont know if a trainer from wemod or cheathappens could effect a lobby usually their not designed that way.

it's happened only in a hand full of games before, generation zero had the same issue, must be the way the game is set up for something like that to happen.

Sounds like cheat engine then, checking the trainers they only are recent. Wemod is 13th of nov and the cheathappens is the 6th of nov.

Soo take that as you will.

They need server side authority. The host should be the only one to affect settings like health, money, enemy spawns, ect.

Only thing you can do right now is CHECK before taking off if something is wrong. The game only saves AFTER returning to orbit. I check as soon as everyone leaves the ship that suddenly there isn't more money in the bank. Then when about to leave I check to make sure nothing was added too just to be safe. Because once you hit orbit that's it, your save is what it is, cheated or not. I caught over 10 times so far someone adding money, watching them sprint forever (even faster then normal), or survive instant kill situations. Often when cheaters see you have no equipment they will spawn cash to purchase gear for themselves before going in. I had a new run where before I even started I spent the 60 currency on an extension ladder only to find a shovel and light added to the drop with 347 or something added to the bank account after landing.

I guess I got lucky with me getting boatload of credits to go to Titan for my death run for ghost girl. I named the title exact as you would think. Never finished since teammates wanted to mess around with jetbacks. I was down to clown though.
