How effective? Hmm I haven't actually caught anyone with it yet, but I have ironed out a few issues. If you already downloaded it you might want to do so again since I just uploaded a new version (1.4) and new binaries for asss 1.4.3 (win and linux).

If you need beta testers lemme know. I'm not a cheater but I know how. I'll try and help you out.

that still didnt help me understand what it monitors in order to catch this, does it check for people going through walls? going faster than max speed? if so then wouldnt it eat up alot of resources by having to watch all the players at one time?

My guess is it checks if people have more reps than the max reps allowed. Weather they are going through walls, weather or not their recharge is higher than what is set in the settings. It's probably just a check from what's happening on their end, to what the settings are.

Let me say clearly this does not detect all cheats. If you download it and look at the settings each type of detection can be turned on or off:

Code: Show/Hide

; cd (cheat detection) [smong jul 14 2006]
; add in to global.conf

[Security]
; bitfield: 0=do nothing, 1=warn sysop, 2=spec
; 4=kick, 8=take action on (and after) second offense only.
; simply add the numbers,
; fx: warn & kick & second offense, 1 + 4 + 8 = 13
CheckWeaponLevel = 13
CheckShrapnel = 13
CheckPrizePickups = 13
CheckItemUsage = 13
CheckUfo = 13
CheckFastBombing = 3
FastBombingThreshold = 5
CheckMapHack = 1
CheckEnergyHack = 1
CheckShipHack = 1

And no I'm not describing what each setting actually checks for.

It's harder to use memory hacks with Continuum 0.39. So there will be less of those idiots. Although im not saying it can't be done. I always leave room for possibilities. I'm glad someone actually made a cheat detection module though. Thanks smong.
