Anti-Cheat Plugin Review

/archive/crates/plugins/ · last edited 16 Jun 2023 · Billing

The anti-cheat plugin was reviewed during the last server meeting, as we approach a period of high activity. The plugin is currently set to run on server startup and manual activation, with warnings sent to users for each detected infraction. The team discussed potential tweaks to improve performance and effectiveness, including increased bans and warnings for repeated offenders. Decisions were made to add new infractions for using bots, wall-hacking, and exploiting server limits.

One moderator suggested increasing the timeout for first-time offenders to give new users a chance to learn the rules, while another suggested implementing a 'cheat reporting' system to encourage users to report suspicious behavior. The team agreed to move forward with the former proposal and to set up the reporting system for testing. No decisions were made on the second proposal.

The plugin's effectiveness was discussed, with some users expressing frustration over seemingly harsh bans for minor offenses. The team emphasized that the plugin's primary goal is to maintain a fair and enjoyable environment for all users, and that some level of strictness is necessary to achieve this. A consensus was reached that any changes must prioritize user safety and comfort.

Open questions for future discussion include the ideal balance between enforcement and user experience, as well as the potential risks and benefits of implementing a reporting system. It was also noted that the plugin's configuration files may require updating to support upcoming server updates. The team will continue to monitor the plugin's performance and effectiveness, gathering feedback and making adjustments as needed.
