Alright ive got an idea how to stop players from cheating (building generators under the map). If they are caught by someone cheating, planting under the map; then they get 1st Warning, plus 50 subtraction from their rating for their punishment. Also the points thAt they got from their oppnent would come back to the person so its fair. But if the guy did it again he will get a second warning plus subtraction of 100points from his rating. Then if he still didnt listen, he will get 3rd warning plus subtraction 150points from his rating and 3days banned from the game to teach him a hard lesson.

Consequences

1st Warning: The other players gets the point he lost and the cheater gets subtracted 50points from his rating.

2nd Warning: Same but the difference is he gets subtracted 100points from his rating.

3rd Warning: Same as the first one but this time he gets subtracted 150points from his rating and banned (all his account) for 3days.

Warkilla I think it's much easier to just restrict the bottom corner, i am doing this on all of my newer maps and am editing my old ones.

Warkilla those are good ideas, however it is easier for me as admin to change the server so that building there isn't possible, which would make this problem go away. I'm going to do that.

Galm i know what you mean but what about the other maps that other players created back then. Like all verdAgons maps, etc. How can other old players edit it if they dont play this game anymore?

I think that sounds good, i'm going to have to agree with warkilla.
