This has probably been asked before, but due to a recent discovery I feel the need to ask again. Is there going to be anything done to prevent in-game command abuse? Last I heard, there wasn't. But this new exploit gives a player a very big unseen advantage. I was wondering if there could be a way to monitor the text typed when you type f8. Like have RG only inspect messages that are prefixed with f8 or ~ to see if they are in-valid. Then if it is an exploit command, it could notify the server RG to have the player removed.

Maybe for post-1.0 .. The feature set for 1.0 has been finalized.. It's something that would have to be done serverside.. no way to detect client console commands.

But what you are working on will prevent client-side commands, right?

Could you do something like renautocomplete where to you type ~... then it replaces it with ~Renguard: Cheat detected or something like that?
