People using cheats

[naruto_luffy]

many times while playing a multiplayer scenario (CBA) the host kicks me if am in a good position. How is he able to do it, and is there anything to prevent it?

There are cheat maps out there, where the host is able to kick his opponents. Best to host yourself or check the name of the map =) (you can check your CBA maps in the scenario editor and delete the ones which have the kicking options in place)

It's basic law too. P2P works by one person being the host, and anyone has the right to disconnect an IP from their computer / connection (which is essentially what you are in-game).

Either host yourself or play with people you know aren't going to ragekick.

There are some CBA maps that have better triggers for player 1.
and there is also a CBA map with a kick function.
technically its not cheating - as Cysion sayd - host your own games.
CBA v13 4,2,1 has a kick function - CBA v13 4,2,2 has better trigger for player 1
cba v15,1 - player 1 start with 2 villagers at beginning. thats are maps i know that changed.

i guess CBA v13 4,2,1 is the map i got ragekicked. Next obvious question is how to use this function. Do i type something in the chat menu or am having some special players on my screen to kill?

In that version, the host has units in the left corner that he can move to kick certain players. (You can see this for yourself; just open a single player game!) Only the host can use this function.

imho anything that gives one player unfair and unknown or unseen advantage over the other players is a cheat. I feel sorry for cheats.

Did you delete one of your starting towers or front starting gates? Because CBA auto-boots you if you do that. The manual booter is in place to kick players who are trolling. There is a player vote booter to boot the host as well. The only reason I don't like the host's booter is because it means that player 1 has one population wasted by the arbalest booter. It should have a tower if anything. The "v13 4,2,2" is a cheat map that gives P1 unique units.

I've never seen a host cheat on Steam, but when they did it on FFA Path Blood games on GameRanger, I used to freeze my game process after getting booted. However, I've seen players troll in CBA on Steam multiple times, so I think it's good to have a booter. What Laptop65 said is also right.
