hi all,
I read an idea on a forum that ventrilo should be disabled somehow on CS:S game servers. The reason was -and i think it's a right one- that ventrilo can be used as a cheat on public servers, or, if a spect. is enabled "just to see the war" it can be used on a war server too.
This is because, ventrilo works even if the player is dead or in spect. so the cheater can report the opponents' move. Hard task to disable it, 1st, because it's a 3rd party software, and 2nd, ventrilo is not the only audio communication software (even MS MSN can be used to cheat like that).
Any ideas, suggestions?
My idea is to disable moving through the map if the player is in spect or dead. But it's not a nice move (on public srv), because dead moods can't do anything, just sit at their boxes seeing the last picture they saw before they died...
Cheers, The Fool
ps.: I know it's not just a linux-related issue, but a global one. Sry if you desire it's a spam-like mail ;)
Genau, und auf LAN bekommt jeder ein Pflaster auf den Mund. :rolleyes:
