    How about anticheat system?

    To developers.
    Lately one crazy man abuse pvp game by creating multiple accounts and taking first places in bunker's legends with speedhack. Looks like it's useless to ban him because he have too much free time, he just make new acc and continue to do this stupid things. I reported him already more than 10 times I think. You have programmers in the team that make new events etc. Why just don't you give them an assignment to make some simple anticheat. I saw on youtube speedhackers just search for some values in memory that represents some coefficients in speed calculation and they change them to greater ones. Anticheat just need to protect those values in memory. Or report changes of them for a ban. If you afraid of false alarms, system can ban player not permanently, but for example give him temporary ban for a day. Another easy solution is that game should crash every time when someone attempt to modify bike parameters in memory.

    Check this thread about that cheater:

    This is a well needed system especially on Android, they make a mockery of the leaderboard, take 1st place in events and disrupt the PvP battles causing some people to spend more money on golden tickets.
    If it's possible without being too difficult to implement then this would be an excellent gesture to the people who have stuck by over these 3 years on the Frontier.

    This is something which should be solved on kernel level, which in the android ecosystem is hard to get as there are many manufacturers. How you will track changes for something being changed? Compared to what? Do you think that the value being compared with can't be changed also? There was a time when i was thinking that RL just need to forbid the game running on rooted devices.. but you can even fool an app that it's on a non rooted device. Even with unlocked boot loader you can trick an app that its being locked. As long as there are games there will be cheaters. As long as there is any profit (by any means) there will be some way to hack and reach it ... the easy way. The history of hacking things is very old and will never end

    Compared to encrypted value. All bike parameters should be read into two different locations in memory. One is working value, another is check value. And periodically they should be compared against each other. It will not take too much resources to compare some numbers.
    Devs already encrypted player's inventory with couple of simple binary functions and no one can edit it directly. Why they can't do it with bike params also?

    Yeah, i really like this idea, and also developers can make system for delete all results on tracks of people who were banned (if it is possible), because this speedhackers garbage really spoils the fun of the game. For example, we have about 50 cheaters on Three Bridges, so 1st plase ≈ 50th place, and it is unfair for fair players.
    Cheers!

    I came across this a couple of days ago. Guest account who was near the top of legends leaderboard. He had speed hacked armadillo and tango. Very frustrating because it ended my winstreak and I might not have time to reach rank 1 now.
    Hard to know if it is the same person though.
    Edit: I made it to legends. Thanks Nobbyhobson for letting me win
