Do you get any messages in your nocheat.log? Some people seem to have these problems, but I can't reproduce them at all. So any help would be very much appreciated.

New version 2.16b is uploaded. Fixes reach problem in creative mode and problems with minecarts.

@jkcclemens

Just uploaded a new version 2.16a, mainly trying to fix the random problems people seem to have.

If you had problems with 2.16 (namely people randomly unable to build/fight/break blocks or people having trouble sprinting) and no longer have them with this version, please tell me.

@jkcclemens

I'll look into that, although I don't know why there could be problems. The only thing NoCheat does with chat is in the spam-check, which simply cancels all chat and command events if a player causes more than the allowed amount. So you may want to deactivate that check for now.

NoCheat doesn't do anything to prevent players from placing lava, water, ores and "shit", as long as they are looking at the location where they place them (to prevent people from using obvious build hacks). By default settings, people aren't allowed to fly, unless in creative mode. If you give people e.g. the permission node "nocheat.checks.moving.flying" that means they get the permission to fly. Giving permission nodes to people will enable them to do stuff, not prevent them from doing stuff (which is the basic idea of permissions).

Hi there!

New Version 2.16 is up. Tons of changes behind the scenes, some compatibility stuff to reduce the aforementioned problem of not being able to sprint (not my fault, but I'll fix it anyway), less sensitive godmode, etc.

As usual, get it early here: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/nocheat/pages/changelog-and-downloads/

I'm getting asked a lot lately about why people can't sprint / sprint-jump with NoCheat. This seems to be a problem with PermissionsEx. ModifyWorld (comes with PermissionsEx) prevents the server from seeing if a player is using the sprint-function, if the player doesn't have a specific permission node of modifyWorld.

This causes NoCheat to not know that the player is sprinting, therefore only seeing a player that is walking too fast. This also causes sprinting players to not get hungry as fast as they should. So ultimately that means you reward players by NOT giving them the permission node and punish players by giving them the node. Quite the opposite of what one would expect.

I've added that to the "known problems" section.

@OrgyMotherfucker

Makes sense. I'll doublecheck in the next version that only direct attacks are checked, not arrows.

@redrock123

It's the thing where people spawn boats in creative mode? It's a bit hard to see what he is spawning there.

I guess I could prevent that by just forbidding placing of boats in creative mode (or restricting placing of boats to maybe one per second per player or something like that).

I'll add it in the next version.

SourceCode is at http://github.com/Evenprime/NoCheat .

I never got around to write more detailed documentation on anything besides the "moving" checks, that's true. I totally forgot about that. Now that there aren't many changes anymore to how the game and NoCheat works, I'll add them soon.
