Help in beating CHEATS!

[free_killing]

do like accname said..
create a dummy for neutral hostile, and one for all players
if the dummy owned by neutral hostile dies, they will get disconnected
notes:
the players dummy must have 1-1 damage..
the neutral hostile dummy must have 100 life, and 50reg per second! =)

5 life, and 2 reg per second would be adequate^^

@free killing: That doesn't help most of the issues, just a few specific ones.

@Tyreal: I think we have established by now that it is quite possible to hack a map. The thing you seem to be missing is that (the majority of) people who insert cheatpacks or hacks into maps do not understand how it is done and could not do it without instruction if their life depended on it. Adding verification to functions would be interesting, and would successfully beat 90% of people attempting to hack your map, seeing as they won't even look at the code.

Hmm... function by function verification. Sounds like the makings of a system to me...

Hmm... function by function verification.

Not going to happen.

 

[saw792]

Trigger verification, I really meant.

 

[TheDamien]

No such thing.

 

[saw792]

Not yet, no.

Since TheHelper.net doesn't support map unprotecting/mpqbrowsing/hacking I can't tell you guys how I fixed the problem.

//I fixed it and disabled more or less like the most cheat pack activators so it is impossible for noobs to hack this and for experts it will be some hard time.

Thanks to esb, through you I made something extra ordinary in the .j files (& not only in the .j files [3rd party programms| russian PWER!])

It would be extremely difficult to stop hackers from creating heats in your map, almost impossible. Anything you create can be changed. Blocking the activators has no affect as you forget they can remove those blocks. Save/Loading can be enabled in singleplayer, nomatter how hard you make it. The best thing you can do is fill the map with all kinds of different triggers to make it more of a pain to hack than they want to handle. It is true though that it makes most noobs turn away.

I am loathe to quote myself but...

Or ever. Trigger or function verification is, by design, not possible. There might be some other sort sort of scripted non-protection that people choose to call trigger verification, but it will be nothing more than a label for a technique in that case, and would in no way resemble an actual verification process.

//I fixed it and disabled more or less like the most cheat pack activators so it is impossible for noobs to hack this and for experts it will be some hard time.

I find it hard to believe you have scripted any real sort of protection against common cheat pack activators. Remember that good Jass editing tools come with the 'Find' functionality.

How about since i tried implementing a cheatpack into a game successfully just to see if it would work, which it did, i've noticed that you cannot implement 2 cheatpacks into the game. What you could do is implement a cheatpack into your game but remove the activator so you can't use the cheats and people can't use their own cheats.

 

[CaptDeath]

@ tyman
that would cause syntax errors then u need like a special we to save game with syn errors other wise it wont work

 

[Tyman2007]

No it wouldn't, not if you made the activator like 300 random charactors.

You would have to implement the cheats into the .j file everytime you saved the map. Whenever you open the map it and save it, it clears the cheats.

@TheDamien

I suspect I may be using terms that I do not understand, or have a completely different meaning in 'real' programming. If I come up with something I will post it, but I suspect as you have pointed out it will be a pale imitation of true verification.
