Forum :: EOSERV :: A timer to catch speeders

Im trying to write this code to catch people speeding but I am not good with using timers this way, I think its almost done but im kinda stuck anyone know how I can do this? I have this in the map.cpp /character walk function

    double now = Timer::GetTime();
    double delay = 0.46;
    from->last_walk = Timer::GetTime();
    double added = from->last_walk + 0.46;
    Console::Out(util::to_string(added) + "ADDED");
    Console::Out(util::to_string(from->last_walk) + "LASTWALK");
    Console::Out(util::to_string(now) + "NOW");
    if (from->last_walk + delay < now)
        {
         Console::Out("What");
         return false;
        }

kewl ;D  would this also work if your using eo trainor to go faster

Well this code is incomplete and Im hoping someone can help me finish this code so it can be applied to walking,attacking and spell cast hacks Im not 100% on if this the correct way to go about this,so any help or direction is appreciated!

I'm not good with those eaither. Just think of it like this.

Make the console (always) checking the current speed of players. If the server relaizes the speed is off just put a server message (or a PM msg).

 

Thats what I would do, just to test it... if it works then I'd wip something nice up... it would be fun that's for sure.. and to test it just use EOTrainer.

I dont care if its a timer or if this code is close to correct or not I think we need to come up with a way to prevent this from happening on our servers. I had a speed walker moving so fast on the server,from the host computer I pinged at 200 ms >.<! Packet editors are my servers worst enemy how to protect yourself from that? Ip changers people login right after being banned. I know this team on eoserv originated from creating the oppisite how do we speed, how do we pass by a ban, so I know you guys have the answers.

I liked how sausage added in the newer revs character->attacks and last_walk if im correct last_walk was meant to track the last_step by a character and compare it to .046 and make sure its less than that if its not{ x,y,map = x,y,map} but t was never implemented? Anyway I feel like this is a big deal to my community and myself and just need a push in the right direct to finish this code and secure my server from this crap. Thanx..

There's already an anti speeder feature in EOSERV.. It's called packet queue.

Ah as far as Im concerned all that does is make the clients connected to the server see their speed as "walkspeed"0.46" doesnt prevent it they still speed you just dont see it so infact I removed all the client ques so my staff can identify the speeders which also seemed to reduce server crashes by about 5% 2 crashes in 48 hrs!

I think most games use ping to determine if a player is speeding. We'll have to test this on Origins with a speeder program. If i remember correctly super speed has to be set to 9am or 9pm to work. Then the small speed is 1.4x the original speed of the server, so if we can test the results of speed from these variations compared to the ping while using the speed.

I think that is a sick idea but im clueless so I guess its time to read some guides or anyone here know a method for detecting ping ?

I hope that you don't plan on keeping it as Console::Out, because you wouldn't be able to see anything if you have more than 10+ people, it would spam the console each time they walk/attack/cast spell. I can't help you out too much right now, as I'm at school, but I might be able to trytonight.

Create your own destiny, don't let someone else do it for you.

The console outputs are just to make sure the code works so it's easily to check.

Yeah I recently started using the console outs it makes the code explain what its doing easy debug!

I know why he's using it, all I'm saying that is when he finishes it, get rid of that Console::Out..
