  • CHANGEAnti-cheat

    Improved Type5, and Type21-24 Anti-Cheat behaviour to reduce false positives

    Anti-cheat Types 5 and 21 to 24 wrongly flag players less often, and private servers can still turn all anti-cheat off in the server's .ini file.

    Improved Type5, and Type21-24 Anti-Cheat behaviour to reduce false positives.

    • Improved Type5, and Type21-24 Anti-Cheat behaviour to reduce false positives. A note that if you do not run a public server (i.e. a server exclusively for you and your family & friends without the worry of griefing and cheating), you can entirely circumvent any sort of frustration with false positives by disabling all AntiCheat protections in the servers .ini file.
