Well as you know, there is a 1.11 map hack out. This map hack bypasses our old anti-map hack method with placing an independant command center.
But, I have discovered a new anti-map hack method!
It involves placing a disabled sprite-unit. Sprite #12 to be exact.
Place this little bugger in places of your map people can not normally see and if one is using a map hack, it will crash on site.
To place it, you will require Starforge. Go into the sprites layer and place any sprite. Change the box to where it sais "Sprite:____" and make it 12. Uncheck the "Draw as Sprite" box and check the "Disabled??" box. There you go. Even if a "Lite map hack" is used, it will crash when it sees this unit.
EDIT: An effective way to use it is to place all players' start locations right where the crash would be if you had vision to that area. Most hack users do not turn off their hacks after every game, making them vulnerable.

It takes us less time to crack their little programs then it does for them to make new ones.

Sorry sprite #13 crashes no matter what after about 3 seconds into the game.

Odd... yet effective!! Also you can use the Neutral Options (Cantina, Cave, Cave-In, Jump Gate, Khaydarin Crystal Formation, Mining Platform, Ruins)

I think we need to track IP's and start making house calls with baseball bats! But none the less nice work, good way to crack it.

Those won't work. The map hack also prevents crashes from them and most other crashes as well.
I edited the first thread. See what I put.

Also you can write a message for the users that uses hack. Do you remember what happen when you place scarabs/intercepters using X-tra? (as normal units). Exactly! They dissapear!
Well, I discovered a lot of time ago that they don't dissapear. They still are in the game as invisible units, but you can see it using a map hack!
What about disabling twice preplaced scarabs or something like that?

I was making what i thought would be the ultimate cat n mouse game but when testing it i found it crashed whenever i built a nexus. I cant figure out if i put to high of a color number on p9 because the map is backed up somewhere (hopefully), it might just be my comp but if anyone figures out anything plz post it.
The antihack thing made me think about it
