Hasn't this been ended as impossible yet?

This has been posted several times in the past, and you cannot detect cheats through chat.

The best thing you can do is look for sudden increases in gold/lumber (greedisgood detection) and have 2 invisible units attacking each other with 1 damage, 2 hp, and 2 hp regen, and if one kills the other the player is using whosyourdaddy.

EDIT: only read first page, didn't see someone said the above methods already >.>

System that disables cheats...

beating resource gain cheats
have an empty player slot that couldnt earn any resource, the cheats give all players resources
have a trigger to remove the amount gained by the empty player slot, that would remove the exact amount cheated, unless the player instantly use up them

detecting whosyourdaddy
have a dummy unit of triggeringplayer continously hitting a enemy building in some hidden corner, the building is set to have very high hp regen, hence it will only die if whosyourdaddy enabled, trigger if unit dies, do, see below

beating whosyourdaddy
when it is enabled, change ownership of all his units to another player
advanced full share unit control to player (doesnt work perfectly but they cheated in the first place)
the cheat works only for the typing player, so allies arent affected
HECK, this works even for whoisjohngalt and sharpandshiny (detecting whoisjohngalt and sharpandshiny is another matter though)

beating iseedeadpeople
periodic trigger
if visibility disabled, black mask area

also, instead of the lengthy lengthy trigger to detect whether it is in singleplayer mode, just use

boolean            bj_isSinglePlayer           = false

to check

but banning single player mode is imperfect, cant use this trick for map over 5mb and cant be multiplayer-ed

ACtually...
your whosyourdaddy counter method would not work.
the way whosyourdaddy works--
causes cheater to deal ridiculous amounts of damage, NOT 1 hit kills (this is why sometimes you can't kill things). but more importantly, it makes you invincible by making all other players deal zero damage. so the shared control team would not deal any damage nor have damage dealt to it

make sense?

Edit: well if you knew

boolean            bj_isSinglePlayer           = false

existed why the caboodle didn't you tell us? i suppose if you did that, then we wouldn't have this epic 7 page thread

Seriously...
There's been several links posted to systems.
There's been multiple ripoff solutions.

This isn't an "epic thread".
This is a spam thread.
Can we let this thread die now?
Thank you.
