Maxping no longer working on servers
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

The maxping stopped working a couple of months ago. Players with higher ping values than set are able to play on the server.

Because of this, there's been a huge increase in players whose ping is in the 300+ region, who we used to block out by setting maxping to 250. The majority of these players cheat via glitches or scripts, and we find we're having to ban on a daily basis.

Maxping is a staple piece of functionality for gameservers on any game, as it can help keep the quality of gameplay up by keeping out players with high pings and also be used as another level of protection against glitchers and scripters.

This should be changed to critical attention. It is killing our servers having a 1200 ping come in. It starts to warp, desync and we are sick of foreign cheating.
allow us to restrict severely to 150 or 200 on our servers.

+1 for effort, there is another one already posted but i cant find it.

It's ridiculous it got disabled for whatever reason. Especially with the desync issues in game, it was one of the only things we had to keep it minimal

Is there any ETA on this? This is still as big of a problem as ever.

I just had to ban 12 glitchers who were glitching in various buildings through the map, and ALL 12 had pings over 300 and were from the same country.

Hello Harrysoon.
Currently there is no ETA, however we are working on the issue and I will update the ticket once the issue is fixed.
