Hackers in my game (it must be stopped)

[M~_22"]

so when i was playing my game random players with no name joins my server and troll people, now you may be wondering what hackers? can't you just kick them? well the answer is no, people that could actually get their profile to have no name cause the game to glitch but what type of glitch is that? well if you have no name, the host cant kick you so you will be stuck in the server forever without you leaving the server. the bad thing about these hackers are they hack the chat that you chat to they uses your profile name and chat inapropriate chat and probably cause you to get banned, the second reason why they are bad is they change your avatar into some inapropriate costumes, they are completely invisible you cant see they nametags and they troll your gameplay

if you are the dev pls go and banned that nasty little hacker for 1 year it will really help this community

ps i put it to general discussions because i want more people to look at it

You can try after attempting to kick them, disconnect your internet for like 10 seconds or something untill they are forcefully disconnected, by then they can not join your game anymore (you may need to let your friends join again).

This is due to an oversight of this game's devs. The /kick mechanic only prevent players from joining your lobby, but does not force them to disconnect (the disconnect is handled on their client, instead of server-side, which means they can easily bypass it by modding their game).

It is possible to force kick them using plugins to patch the game. For example, this is a plugin that I wrote a few months before https://github.com/Kirisoup/MikoUtils.

i got disconnected from my own server as well

Well lol. Essentially what you'd want to achieve here is to make them disconnected. It is fairly easy using plugins (really just 1 line of code), but I guess I never knew you can get disconnected from your own lobby lol.
