Cheating Concerns - Any way to combat it?

I believe there is a fundamental difference between anti-cheat and server administration tools.

Wouldn't you agree that it should be up to the server admin/owner about what policies are enacted upon on their server.

While the devs can provide the tools to properly mitigate cheaters if the admins/owners wish, obviously to allow servers to be ran both in a state where cheating is allowed and cheating isn't, the tools have to be configurable, this includes being able to set the server to run a server with no anti-cheat at all.

Now where do we draw the line for the terms cheat/hack/mod, as currently the way modding works now is that players are in essence telling the game to load more asset files and editing current asset files.

 

you are right, check my other thread i go over that topic in great detail http://community.playstarbound.com/...is-not-a-complaint-thread.45310/#post-1474274
