i was giving myself money on the love console while working on my mod and noticed multiplayer logging a client message of this event. does the mod indiscriminately send these events to the server whether or not im playing multiplayer? i think this, and the fact that the server's security is based on hopes and prayers, pose a huge privacy risk.
i'd like to also know if the multiplayer servers keep permanent logs of IP addresess and other personally-identifiable information.
#[privacy] is the mod watching me play singleplayer?

If I understand it correctly the money moved messages are only logged on your side and not actually sent anywhere. The only things sent to the server are things your opponent would need to know. Like if you’re in the PvP blind, how many lives you have, what you scored, etc
Well, you would be right on most other scenarios, But I believe that specific log entry prefix is specifically a built-in part of the networking code for when a packet is sent.
So it is sending it to the server, but because you are not in a lobby, it just gets discarded when it arrives.
I am not familiar with the moneyMoved action though 🤔
