Someone described to me a situation which is very reminiscent of injection bots. This is third-hand evidence, though a video which I have not seen supposedly exists, of an aimbot which is using injection or at the least reflection.
Purportedly, a player using an aimbot recorded a video of themselves where they managed to headshot someone who was never on their screen. The aimbot player was running forwards, the character of the player who was shot was never displayed on screen, and the aimbot player turned approximately 90 degrees and got a brilliant headshot. On a player that was not shown on the video of the aimbot player's view until the headshot.
I had assumed EAC would try and catch injection but injection bots are RIDICULOUSLY hard to catch. The only way I know of to reliably catch injection (or a solid screencap bot, but you're pretty much golden for that because of the game complexity) is behavioral, but that's a MASSIVE amount of AI programming to be able to decide in a given moment "This is what a human can do here. And nah, what you did was superhuman. Nice aimbot though." This also has a tendency for false positives, which is its own danger.
:speechless:
so you made a thread about a video you haven't seen, about bots that can use aim hacks?
why?
Because bots break games, especially aimbots in Rust, and I provided a few details which will help the developers to figure out ways to detect and end them. This type of hacking is not uncommon, but the case I spoke of is very indicative as to how the bot is built. Know how the bot is built is how you break the bot.
fair enough then;)
