Issue

The minecraft protocol gives clients full control over block breaking, including the break-duration. While this allows for fluent gameplay even with high latency, cheats can abuse this to break blocks faster than normally possible.

How it works

To solve this issue, Intave re-calculates how long a legitimate player needs to mine specific blocks. If a player breaks a block faster than possible, we will cancel the break procedure.

Accuracy

This check is able to detect small deviations and gets more accurate the more data it collects.

History

This approach remains unchanged for the last eight years.

Issues

The check might false flag legitimate players with rapid latency changes, even with Intave trying to account for such scenarios.
