Anti Cheat?

[Ronniek09]

Not sure if this is possible, but as server owners, we all know Battle Eye is a complete joke.
My number 1 cheat problem is an aim botter.
Is there any way a plugin can detect if someone is aimbotting? Not sure how an aimbot program even works, but would be very cool to have an anti cheat for it as it can be a big problem and very difficult for server owners to truly detect one, even if we spectate sometimes.

Actually, battleye is not bad and there are only a few cheats for ark. I doubt it's need some additional anti cheat. Anyway, server side detection of aimbot is complicated.

Battleye is one of the best Anti-Cheat Systems.
Its possible to add an serverside Stat Checker like in Rust Oxide.

I can guarantee aimbots still are able to surpass battle eye. I have had players show me and not get detected. Was just a thought.

i can guarantee there is no better anti hack then battle eye really i can only think of one and its not as used so that's why (denuvo) battle eye block every public hack that comes out sure they don't block private ones but they are always looking for new ways to prevent it at the moment they run a driver at your pc hooking most kernel and user functions which does indeed make it hard to bad programmers to actually bypass it because they would need to write a driver themselves or rewrite some functions but yeah and also checking for aimbot is not a easy thing to do server side it is infact 10000x easier client side to check for at least then you can scan all open programs to see if any are using SendKeys or anything and also u could see if any unverified drivers are running but yeah that's down to ark really i can imagine making a detection for this would get too many false positives i mean sure we could count how many times someone killed someone at the almost exact location on each of the victims body's but what if that happened legit too then you could be kicking / banning innocent users

and plus if i was to make such a detection it can get bypassed by adding random variables to the position of the victim to make the shots seem more legit
