PSA: Remember that hosts can ban players!

Recently there have been a few hackers in the game. I'm only one person, and I can't manage banning every hacker. Here's how you can prevent hackers from playing in your matches:



To ban a player as the host, press TAB to open the scoreboard. Then press down the scroll wheel on your mouse to unlock the cursor. Click on the player you want to ban, and choose "Ban." This will ban them from the match and prevent them from rejoining. If there's a hacker in your match, please ask the host to ban them.

Update 1.21

Changes
  • Hosts can now ban players. Open the scoreboard, press middle mouse button to free the cursor, click on the player you want to ban, and click "Ban." This will prevent the player from participating in that match. You can also report hackers and view player profiles from this screen. Please report hackers in-game and on the discord server for them to be banned from the entire game.
  • Added profile pictures to the scoreboard
  • Added a new setting which lets you disable profile pictures
  • Made grapple aim-assist more forgiving
