Description
Checks players for the use of invalid commands and logs to server console. Useful to determine cheaters which manipulated number of sending commands/tickbase to shift their game time.

Required
DynamicHooks
SMAC (compilation only)

Notes

• if player using invalid commands and have rounded or fixed dropped_packets. I am pretty much sure he is cheating.
• g_iIgnoredCommands here is only for remove false positive result. Since when map changes server tickbase also changes but client sided doesnt and becomes synced with server only on second tick but they still can happen if some admin reloads plugins or server lost connection.
• Perhaps for an additional check, I can add check for the number of commands sent and if they differ from the expected value then player possibly cheating or have a bad performance.
• This is first release so so far plugin only do logging and doesn't ban anyone

ConVar

PHP Code:

// if the player uses invalid commands then plugin will reset them
// its useful if cheater uses airstuck/no fall damage/teleport because it will be fully blocked but he still can crash your server
// 0 - disabled | 1 - enabled

False positive: 2
Cheaters: 0

Dropped packet (0), just because someone have a lag does not mean he is cheating.

after more testing is done someone needs to make sure the sourcecode for this plugin is uploaded to SirPlease

https://github.com/SirPlease/L4D2-Co...emod/scripting

they have the compiled version but not the sourcecode

https://github.com/SirPlease/L4D2-Co...r_commands.smx

the compiled version was uploaded with this commit

I enabled sm_usercmd_null_invalid_commands and no it does not block jockey teleporting it still happen and did not even detected it in fact, or your method is bad or it was simply the bug as nobody is stupid enough to cheat with that. In comparision jockey_unteleport did the job and fixed it, just my experience.

The only case when the plugin stops working correctly is if you have a bunch of errors on the server or something that can refresh plugins at runtime but it will only result in false positive result so that means plugin wasn't started or there are other methods to teleport.

Can you change "Compiler needed" to "1.11" so it compiles on Alliedmodders?
