Fake money bug

Post by JonathanW2 »

It is possible to change the value of your money with a program such as Cheat Engine. This money is not real but it looks real in trades so you can rip people off. I don't think anybody has been duped off yet but it is a potential problem.

it wouldn't actually work as it only changes the data in memory client-side but the real data is server-side

even if you modify your packets you can't feed garbage to the server or it rejects the packets, and you can't send it false data because the server always double-check
