Hey Ippert, thanks for looking into this.

In case you have not seen it, someone else and me reported the same issue in this thread (link below), although we might not have been using the proper reporting style seen here. It is the same person each time (OMGitsme5377).

Thank you anyway!

I think it is pretty simple for a “legit” client to detect a “hacker” client and simply refuse to enter in the same game. Many games have that.
