PRAXIC AntiCheat

🛡️ PRAXIC v0.16.0 - Impact

A full detection pass, a real stop on illegal packets, and a long list of “that was never a cheat” fixes. Built for people who run the server — not for people who read the source.

✨ What’s New

Mitigation
When a move, a hit, an air-place or a Wind Charge is illegal, the server can refuse it. The cheater rubberbands. Timer, auto-click and inventory are never cancelled this way. Toggle: enableMitigation.

Impulse
Vanilla knockback is not fly. Damage, explosions, wind charges, riptide and a real mace smash get a short exemption so movement checks stay quiet.

Six new checks

Ghost traps v2 — still a honeypot, now invisible, no collision, one per player, hidden from everyone else.

🔄 What Changed

• 35 checks on /praxic status and the dashboard (was 29).
• Movement handling runs in time to cancel. No more “we saw it after vanilla already applied it.”
• Config migrates on load so leftover timer limits from old files do not sit there forever.
• /praxic tp follows the dimension of the flag.
• Whitelist accepts offline names.

🧠 Detection That Finally Shows Up

These were the quiet ones. They are not quiet now.

• 🪽 Fly — hover without a floor. Survival clients that send “I am flying.”
• 🏃 Speed — ground speed that is not sprint.
• 🌊 Jesus — walking on water or lava. Not swimming. Not climbing out.
• ⛵ Boat fly — boat in the air, hull not in water.
• 🌀 Blink — a dump of small steps that is still a teleport.
• 🪶 NoFall — on-ground lie after a real drop.
• 🧿 Auto totem — totem back in offhand in the same breath as the pop.
• 🪜 Step — a climb taller than a jump, in one go.
• 🏗️ Scaffold — blocks under the feet with a fake look. Hand-building is fine.
• ⏱️ Timer — the whole client running hot. You feel it when you run. You see it in the log.
• 🍎 NoSlow — sprinting through a bite, on the ground.
• ⛏️ Nuker — two impossible breaks, not one.

🐛 What We Stopped Flagging By Mistake

• Elytra looking like a teleport
• A long flight looking like Blink
• Getting out of water looking like Jesus
• Landing a boat on water looking like fly
• Building a house looking like scaffold
• Eating, then sprinting, looking like NoSlow
• Hitting water after a fall looking like NoFall
• Ghost stands showing up for the whole server
• Debug files left behind on disconnect
• Dashboard not shutting down with the server
