Why would having player movement data help cheating?
Why is the cheating clearly an insider thing?
Why aren't you sure if anything meaningful can be derived from the movement data?
What do you mean by "prone to this"?
Are you sure they didn't consider "cheating" as a possible use of the movement data?
Could they have considered it but thrown it away as off-topic and implausible?
- minimaxir 2y agoThey are implying player teleporting, which is a common hack in BRs. Player movement data that is too fast for normal players could be seen as cheating. An AI isn't strictly needed for that, just check displacement over time.
- artemisart 2y agoIs it really a common hack? I would have guessed teleportation is the easiest to detect server-side, or impossible from the start as the server is authoritative (clients sends inputs, the server computes the positions and any important change, sends them back to clients, clients cannot hack their movement).
