Fluffypoopo

MonsterYT_DaGamer that is more that INTERNECION no offense but question
could you do my 10 page essay?

Fluffypoopo

On a completely different note
Anyone got that link to the table hacking thing
I CAN EXPLAIN, I am working on a counter to it so I am going it use it on my code trying to find a fix to it

The basic idea it uses 3 tablets checking each other and if one is not the same as the other two it is changed to match the other two

Before you ask how are you supposed to change the data on purpose, you change all 3

person

Still reading...

Fluffypoopo

I just came up with a idea

Fluffypoopo

What if I make a thing that is like my unique translator but for libraries and only it knows the translation of it so people that hack into the table can’t decipher it because only the library knows

Fluffypoopo

Which means they are not able to give themselves things

Fluffypoopo

I just had another Idea If I make my current project self-adjusting so you can tell it how many tables you want it to watch over and it adjusts to it that would make it more useful and universal thing than it already is

Fluffypoopo making encryption doesn't mean that someone can't crack it as far as i know of storing the key somewhere else just deters a few people plus the people who are interested in what you are doing could also reverse engineer what your doing... bottom line is you'd be better off not trying to overcomplicate it and obfuscate it, keyValue requests already take enough time as it is, if it's encrypted you have to decrypt it and recrypt it each time a message is sent which is a huge hit to your actual performance just try to keep in mind when you do decide to add something like this also people can decompile your library and figure out how the key generator works as well... don't know who'd go through the effort though but you can bet a small % that someone will also, implementing a checking system like that is like basically asking for a performance hit unless your going to check it almost every frame it won't matter, plus if your smart about it you can change all 3 tables at once all it requires is a little do diligence, plus if you didn't know you can just remove all the values from the project rendering your method useless unfortunately

MonsterYT_DaGamer

so uh, what you are explaining is a thing to make a project like, data browser proof?

cuz if anyone knows how to make that PLEAASEE give it to me!
I want to add achievements to my game, but people will complain if all their progress keeps getting reset

Fluffypoopo

MonsterYT_DaGamer well I can't stop people from getting into the table but I may be able to stop people from changing it

Fluffypoopo

Varrience but if I can create a anti delete then they can't

Fluffypoopo

Varrience you can change all 3 tables at once

I was planning on making it customizable with the table amounts

Fluffypoopo

Varrience asking for a performance hit

I am making it drop in so the coder chooses when it runs, I am designing it with a prevalent project mindset so I thought as a person loads it checks the tables but again it is for the coder to chose

Varrience

Fluffypoopo and how are you going to do that? are you going to outsource a database outside of CDO or run a server that keeps track of all the values constantly? otherwise no there isn't really a way to stop a person from changing it, plus if the person knows what there looking for they can modify all 3... point being if all 3 change or don't exist where's the backup going to be? also giving the programmer the choice to make the decision isn't much better, since anyone can check the interval of the updating time it won't be that hard to sync their changes to the updating interval

Fluffypoopo

V1 is going to only be for tables maybe later on I can make a keyvalue one

INTERNECION

Fluffypoopo oh hey fluffy! You were in the hospital? What happened? Are you alright?

Fluffypoopo

INTERNECION Hey, Yes, my 5th peritonsillar abscess, Yes

Fluffypoopo

Varrience 3

I was planning on having the ability to increase the number of backups

INTERNECION

Fluffypoopo ah I see. I have heard of that before. Must've been hell. At least your doing alright now, right?

Fluffypoopo

INTERNECION Must've been hell

a peritonsillar abscess is like strep but only one inflates and it only gets bigger
