Hi Guys, theres currently a hacker running rampant in our community server. He is killing people with a pickaxe from hundreds of meters away and the combat logs show that the player was killed by pickaxe.entity.
The id from the killer also keeps changing every few minutes so I cannot find a way to pinpoint the steamID doing this stuff.
Is there anything I can do about this? I've already investigated logs from every player in the server and none add up to the pickaxe murderer.
Thankyou
I second this.
I have the same problem on my server. I got random id of "entity_pickaxe" hitting people.
Which server is yours mate? At the moment we are thinking it may be to do with the new patch and that this 'hacker' may in fact be just a glitch that kills people in certain zones.
Did you just update your server today and are you finding the killings are in certain zones?
I think the same
Just after the server restart after the last update players started to notifies this.
Fair enough mate, weird, i've made a post in reddit here

I'll let you know if i find anything out though =)
I restarted the server like 1 hour ago and no news about this glitch. Did you try restarting yours ?
Yeah same thing happening in the server im on, around H10 most the time
Same here, some guy was killed 3 times then me

Hey guys! Update for you.
Going by what someone has told me over on the resit forums, this issue may be the result of the scientist npcs in this game.
Apparently the latest patch has fucked them up causing them to also spawn at trash piles around the world invisible.
If everyone else who has posted here has scientist enabled then I reckon that's the cause. Try disabling them and see if it stops.
Cheers
