PEAK AntiCheat
An anti-cheat mod that automatically detects and blocks players using cheat mods and exploits in public lobbies.

Important Notes
- This mod is defensive only - it protects you from cheaters rather than punishing them
- Detection isn't 100% perfect, but it's the most effective solution allowed on Thunderstore
- You can always unblock players if they were falsely detected
- The most foolproof solution to handling cheaters, is to ensure everyone in your lobby has the Anticheat.
Donations
Donations are never required, but appreciated. The mod will always remain free and up-to-date.
Cheat mods aren't inherently bad - it's how they're used. This mod helps level the playing field in public lobbies. Please don't harass platform staff about cheat availability - direct feedback to the game developers instead.
