[FoF] Possible false-positives for "Angle-Cheats" in game Fistful of Frags
Mecha-Weasel opened this issue · comments
When I first started using Lilac on my Fistful of Frags (FoF) servers, I started almost immediately getting a bunch of "Angle-Cheat" detections - including from regular players I am confident were not cheating.
I treated this is a false-positive, disabled Angle-Cheat detection and un-banned everyone banned for that reason on those servers.
Perhaps the thresholds for Angles/views is different in Fistful of Frags?
Yeah FOF isn't tested with Lilac, what were the angles in the logs? (Please don't share IPs or SteamIDs, just the angles)
Hey, any update on the logs?
Closing this due to lack of replies, feel free to reopen with logs or further questions if any :)
Sorry, where i what logs? I may not have preserved that data.
The log should be here on the server: addons/sourcemod/logs/lilac.log
Edit: Please do not share the entire file if you have it, only the relevant sections, also remove IPs before posting.
If you don't have the file, then I sadly won't be able to help you much.
You can disable angle checks with the ConVar lilac_angles
Thanks for the info, and the follow-up.
Unfortunately, I have some log-clean-up processes that zip up stuff in the folder, and since the file does not incorporate a date-code in its name, it keeps getting overwritten in the backups - loosing any previous version with useful information it it.
I'll have to adapt my clean-up process to exclude lilac.log, to not interfere with preservation of the events.
I will do so, and wait for it to happen again.
Got a new detection for angle-cheats last night:
