Server Guard

A protection layer stopping packet-level exploits and bot traffic.

Server Guard

Overview

A guard and anti-bot layer for a High Five server after a wave of movement hacks and duplication attempts.

The challenge

Players were exploiting packet-injection movement and probing for dupes. The staff had no visibility and were reacting to Discord reports hours later.

Our solution

We added server-side validation and rate limiting on high-risk packets, impossible-sequence detection, anti-bot behavior heuristics, and adena-flow anomaly alerts routed to staff - plus fixes for the specific dupe vectors found in an audit.

Key features

  • Packet validation and rate limiting
  • Impossible-action detection
  • Anti-bot behavior heuristics
  • Economy anomaly alerting
  • Full admin command auditing
  • Regression tests for fixed exploits

This case study describes the type and scope of work L2Developers delivers. Details are representative.
