its a the biggest issue of multiplayer right now period and should really be the developers main focus, not even a debate
as you can see from many other posts on here and player complaints, exploiters/hackers have been causing havoc every server, you cant kick them as you cant really tell whos doing it, and im pretty sure some of them dont even need to be in your server to do it

the things they can do are listed here (and thats just the start)
spawning any item they like anywhere on the map (ive gotten gigantic N words and explosive lag cubes)
crashing servers instantly
changing scripts of chat mods to make players say vulgar things

#

also, whatever this is

#

update: they do need to be in a server for their scripts to work
and they can change their name

i think there shouldn't be public lobbies

glad ibex
#

just make a private server?

public lobbies get ruined and preventing exploiters is such a pain, especially for small teams like Tuxedo Labs

#

there are bugs to fix, and honestly it's sad if they spend their time working on tools to prevent exploiting instead of fixing bugs that for example prevent the game from launching

Wanted to throw in me and my buddy were playing last night on a private server just the two of us but the lobby was still set for 12 players, since that shouldn't matter if its private, and a hacker joined in, spawned a bunch of light source and then the game started lagging heavily so we quit to main menue and closed the game. The person who joined had no name visible. It just showed player joined.

Unfortunately we relaunched after so the log file seems to be lost on the restart.

i was gonna send you something but for now you can just set the player limit to 2

That's our plan. I'm just throwing our experience out here because exploiters in a public server is knew thing. Them being able to join a private uninvited is just super strange.

i can send you a certain mod but your dms are off

Best guess was a brutforce try codes until one works.
