We all know there's way too many botting players out there so...
This idea is actually coming from a different game I used to play for like a week until I got bored with it.
Anyway, there is this npc "mob" (about 1 in every spawn of monsters) that if attacked for more than 10-20 seconds, the user will be disconnected from the server and a report will go out the GM's/Admins/whoever.
A player using a bot would attack this "fake monster" without knowing the difference.
A player attacking monsters the honest way would know not to attack this "fake monster."
If a new player starts to attack one without realizing they shouldn't, a message will come up to stop attacking the "fake monster".
Obviously the "fake monster" would be easily distinguishable from actual mobs.
Solution 2:
Get rid of the auto select tab key function.
I know tabbing is useful, but it's how bots work most of the time.
I hope these ideas/suggestions helped!
Botting really sucks for the honest players in the game.
To prevent other hacking methods, you could use gameguard or some other widely used hacking prevent engine ^^
P.S. Sorry if these have already been suggested before, I didn't see any posts related to botting on the first page.
And also sorry if this is in the wrong category forum @_@
