Command abuse

[Eye4NEye]

This is just an FYI . I caught a player using cl_forwardspeed, cl_backspeed, and cl_sidespeed tonight. He was running around like lightning and racking up tons of points. I wasn't aware that players had access to these commands, but it's a major exploit.

cl_* commands are all client side, it's not an exploit.

I don't even think you can do anything about it.

I realize that Drak, but when it's giving people an unfair advantage, then it's an exploit. I just put it out as an FYI for people to keep an eye out for it, especially the admins.

If your implying that admins should take action against this, that wouldn't be fair.
The server has enough rules, there's no need to block such a thing like this. If anything should be done, it should be blocked via server-side. (Plugins, etc)

just like cl_alpharadar 200, if any one plays css. :/

I disagree. I think as admins it's our job to make the environment one that is fun to play in and one that is a level playing field. We wouldn't allow someone to come in with an aimbot, why would we let someone come in and exploit speed commands? Commands that allow that player to accumulate hundreds of point a level and rush through levels so fast that other players barely get to play.

I agree with Eye. This is a problem, and we need to solve it. Yes, it is a client side command that anyone can use. BUT. Doing this only benefits for one person, and that's the person using the command. We had too many problems in the past with people rushing to the end of the map. This is almost exsacly what we do NOT want on our server.

You do have a vaild point there Eye.

We can actually add plugins that prevent players from modifying certain commands or settings on their end...

You can't block cl_ commands.

meh one day everyone will go speeding around then annoying people will say "hey TraIn wIre how are you doing that?"

then people on the server will join for the wrong reasons.
