We have integrated a very effective anti-cheat system called "Easy Anti Cheat" (EAC) into Empyrion to avoid cheating on dedicated servers. EAC is not activated per default because we did not yet run extensive tests - we are planning to activate it by the end of the next week. However, if you want to help us testing it, you can activate EAC as follows:1. On your server, open dedicated.yaml and set: EACActive: true-> now EAC is active on your server2. All clients that want to connect to your sever have to run "EGS.exe" from inside the installation folder of Empyrion: C:\Steam\SteamApps\common\Empyrion - Galactic Survival (if Steam is not installed to standard location, see: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=7418-YUBN-8129)Remember: Starting the game normally from your Steam Client will not allow you to connect to an EAC protected server for now - you have to manually start "EGS.exe"Our next steps:
- we will activate EAC per default in dedicated.yaml (however, you can opt out to not use EAC)
- all EAC protected servers will have an icon in the Server Browser Please post your feedback in this thread.
