Server-Side monitoring

[shy thunder]

I made this suggestion because i had a conversation about this in another suggestion and wanted to go more into depth

Im expecting macroers to downvote this either way because i use the words macro in the first sentence

[paper eagle]

the reason these typa games have alot of players is because of the macroing part of it though.

alot of people can't sit 19 hours infront of a screen playing for a unit that is either trash or gets outdated next update

[shy thunder]

of course, i can see why they woudlnt remove it, but i think if they dont do anything about it then it will have bad effects for the game in the long run

[paper eagle]

instead of working on a way to detect macros, they should work on making new content more active play and move away from the repedetive gameplay, wher eu just retry and redo it the exact same.

like a infinity castle changing maps every x runs
No matter what macroing will exist and thats kinda sad

[shy thunder]

yeah of course but thats gonna take some time, also its kinda hard to avoid repetitive gameplay in a tower defense game

[shy thunder]

[digital drift]

Holy yappatrony

[shy thunder]

didnt upvote, im coming to ur house tonight

[digital drift]

Basically anti macro, more macro = more gems = more gambling 🤑🤑

[shy thunder]

hush up macroing stenchmaxxer

[sinful steppe]

a whole lotta yap for what

no

[real pivot]

me

[sinful steppe]

i saw captcha and instantly stopped reading

[shy thunder]

this doesnt correlate to my suggestion in the slightest smart fuck, they say they dont have plans to ban people, my suggestion doesnt mention banning someone permanently ONCE, pipe down FILTHY pink role

[wicked heron]

bro didn't altdefenders try doing CAPTCHA and failed horribly 😭

[shy thunder]

ur acting like everyone will experience captchas, if the program detects that there is a pattern in the players input only then will the captcha, or some other form of verification which cant be macroed pops up, do you honestly have nothing better to do in your life than to graze over suggestions and if you see any form of macroing mentioned your neurons activate and you go "imuh downvoting dis wight fwiking now!"

[shy thunder]

tbf their captcha sucked ass, also im pretty sure their system just popped up out of nowhere even if u werent macroing, happened to me a couple of times atleast

also atp this game is becoming macro vanguards so the 2 top td games will then be macro vanguards and alt defenders, what a duo

[wicked heron]

oh forgot he said that

[shy thunder]

they

[wicked heron]

you do know that all td games including anime adventure had macros right?

[sinful steppe]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTD6mnGtlfA&pp=ygUOaG9tdXJhIGFmayBmYW0%3D

[shy thunder]

yes but they were not as big issues as they are in this game, finding someone who doesnt macro despite being able to is like finding a diamond in your backyard

[sinful steppe]

it was a big issue, just no one liteally cared
homura event had people running 6 alts farming her sh

[wicked heron]

are you fucking deadass, you telling me I could have macro for homura 😭 ?

[shy thunder]

why are u sending this bro, the game doesnt even exist anymore

[wicked heron]

people still macro in anime adventure.

[shy thunder]

it was a big issue just not as big as in Vanguards, what about the simplest of simple sentences did you not understand

[timid tartan]

They already declined anti macro, good luck

[shy thunder]

every single one of them were absolute horseshit because they simply wouldnt work, i can literally go and take screenshots of a developer saying that they havetn found an easy solution to macroing yet, which means that it is an issue to them

[wicked heron]

I mean I don't mind them making secrets unmacroable as long as it doesn't compromise the player's experience

[shy thunder]

pipe down pink roles

[shy thunder]

thats literally what my suggestion is about 💀

[timid tartan]

A single dev doesn't speak for the entire staff team. Whoever does suggestion stuff clearly knew this wasn't gonna happen

[wicked heron]

If anime adventures wasn't able to stop macros, then I dont know about anime vanguards bro

[ionic cloud]

They should just make macro imposisble for secret units or exclusive

[shy thunder]

they didnt care about macroers, they only wanted money, they lost passion for their game like 3 months in

[shy thunder]

one dev saying that its an issue is enough to prove that there is some discussion about macros within the developer team

[timid tartan]

Discussion vs a confirmation is not the same

[wicked heron]

bro I am not even sure if this Server-Side Monitoring will work anyway, they could just rejoin the game and there's no "pattern" to track anymore.

[shy thunder]

what the fuck are you talking about bro? I dont recall saying that there is confirmation that the whole developer team wants to fix macros

[timid tartan]

Also I'm not for macros, but I'm not going to stand against them when these types of games exist

[shy thunder]

if they rejoin the game patterns will be detected again bro, the pattern would be detected within a minute

[timid tartan]

First of all calm down, lol. Also a declined suggestion to the broad term of anti macro is confirmation they will not be going against it

[sinful steppe]

half the community macroed for homura lmao

[shy thunder]

using swear words does not = me not being calm, and those suggestions youre talking about werent broad anti macro suggestions, if i recall correctly both of them had some form of solution that they made, which both wouldnt work and would still be macroable, which is probably why they got declined

[sinful steppe]

macroing has already be declined, has been known by the devs, and knowningly accepted that it wont be patch
you can patch tinytask, but that wont stop the several ahk image based macros

[shy thunder]

i think one was being teleported to a new game after completing one stage and the other was random teleports when u load into the game

[sinful steppe]

the devs probably already know themselves how to patch macros there not stupid, they are just choosing not to

[shy thunder]

you clearly did not understand a word of my suggestion, this program would work against any form of macro that repeats input, which is literally what every single macro program on the market does

[shy thunder]

"theres not an easy solution" pipe down

[wicked heron]

So your saying that every macro for every game mode, used by over 200,000 players, will have its patterns recorded, even if some macros can last up to 20 minutes? and you think that this system will go through about 200000 patterns just to match this pattern just to see if they are macroing?

[timid tartan]

"What the fuck are you talking about bro?" Yeah alright sure dude idrc. Also I can show you the declined suggestion. There was no solution. Just a broad term to take action against it. Not what you're talking about.

[sinful steppe]

i would much rather trust the words of pseyh, who has actually shown himself to be the scripting behind most of the mechanics and cores of the game

[hexed arch]

https://tenor.com/view/one-piece-sabo-meme-i-ain't-reading-allat-gif-2236514285106777359

[sinful steppe]

also im pretty sure with this part of your suggestion "but still severe enough to set them back for long enough that if they played normally they would've had more progress, so being suspended from playing for 24-48 hours would be enough" is literally bewilding
make it so a player cant play for 2 days because they used an advantage which is allowed? thats like banning deepwoken or type soul players for using keybinds 😭

[shy thunder]

yes, thats how moderation systems work my friend, its not like anti hacking moderation in minecraft servers only detects 10% of hackers

[wicked heron]

good luck with that

[timid tartan]

Listen dorito i get why you're upset about it, because I understand why you want macros to stop. It just won't happen though because this is roblox anime td, which isn't peak engagement. It is what it is type shit

[shy thunder]

its against roblox ToS, its obviously not allowed buddy

[timid tartan]

I am all for a more engaging game but that just won't happen on a game like this

[wicked heron]

Honestly, it probably seems like a hassle to the developers themselves to deal with

[sinful steppe]

go find it in tos right now because theres NOTHING in tos and theres several forums + sources which disproves this statement

[hexed arch]

literally every td has macroing and its not an issue, this just seems real bad cuz everyone is saying that they are macroing, when it was the same in aa and the other td games

[timid tartan]

That too. Anime td games on roblox are literally the only thing I macro. If another game was super grindy that required me to be there the entire time I'd probably try and macro that too

[hexed arch]

[shy thunder]

i am basing this suggestion mostly on Aandres comments, like i said in the end of the suggestion it isnt aimed at the general players, its aimed at the developers to give most of the feedback. I am also basing this partially on my disliking of macros but its more so based on what Aandre said, because ive already had a discussion with him and i made this to elaborate on my point

[sinful steppe]

you can feel free to disprove me if its in tos, ill accept it

[timid tartan]

I disapprove because I personally won't enjoy manually doing everything in this game with how anime td's are, but I get it

Also I have a horrible memory but I feel like i remember something about it being in tos because it falls under a category of 3rd party program I think, don't know for sure about allat though

[wicked heron]

AAndreVious:

[shy thunder]

is pyseph saying that it is strictly against ToS not enough or do i need to go and search for it myself

[sinful steppe]

Aandrevious could be a vaild source, but im asking for a tos ss,

[shy thunder]

ok hold on ill look for it, might take some time though because the ToS are LONG

[sinful steppe]

i mean could be a vaild source, but im asking for it written in the tos

[shy thunder]

yes, Aandre is not a coder and as such probably has absolutely no idea what i was talking about, good job

[shy thunder]

ill look for it, im eating dinner rn tho

[timid tartan]

Seeing a lot of "up to the owner of the game" for game bans only though

[wicked heron]

You're not a coder either and yet you think this Server-Side Monitoring system is possible. Beside I am sure he wouldn't just not share/consider your suggestion with the other developers

[nova nymph]

This is just ridicilous atp buddy suggested pattern recognition that would need to be constantly running in the bg recording inputs 💀

[wicked heron]

bro imagine the fucking pings 💀

[nova nymph]

I love completely shitting on performance, ruining my latency, wasting developers time just to prevent macroing which has more positives than negatives

[wicked heron]

I would honestly feel so bad for the mobile players rn if this shit was to be implemented

[shy thunder]

have you ever heard of something called a "automatic moderation system"?

[shy thunder]

according to him thats literally what he did, he showed the coders the code i made chatgpt make. Server side monitoring should be possible because its simply an automatic moderation system with some extra tweaks, wich alot of games have

[wicked heron]

His response to that code:

[shy thunder]

i wonder why, maybe because an A.I. which probably knows absolutely nothing about coding in Lua made it?

[trail cape]

This is a good idea bro

[shy thunder]

honestly dont got a clue what youre getting at here

[digital drift]

Spent 4 hours drawing for my goofy suggestion

[shy thunder]

aint no way

hop on right fricking now

[digital drift]

I am shooting some sort of dism command prompt, i wanna find out why this shitbox is still crashing

[shy thunder]

bump

[shy thunder]

bump

[empty cobalt]

This seems hard and uneccesary, pls remember that the best way to deal with macros is INDIRECTLY NOT DIRECTLY

[digital drift]

The gabe newell mentality

[icy salmon]

every anti macro suggestion ive seen is horrid

[shy thunder]

Tell me whats so horrid about it then

If ur such a genius tell me where i went wrong and ill improve it.

[shy thunder]

Shouldnt be too hard to implement

Its honestly impossible to make suggestions in here because of the filthy stenchmaxxing greenies and red roles, might make a suggestion so that they cant even see the suggestions channel because all they do is scavenge for anything that critscises their laziness and hound on it

If it makes the game easier for them its awesome but if not then its the worst suggestion ever
