Anti Cheat System
How the server anti cheat system automatically enforces server rules
The server utilizes a powerful and sophisticated anti cheat system to detect when players appear to be using client-side modifications to gain an unfair competitive advantage over other players.
Policy On Hacking
As stated in the Server Rules, Foundation Craft has a strict no hacking policy which is necessary to keep the economy sustainable and provide a fair and competitive gameplay experience for all players.
Anything that enables an unfair competitive gameplay advantage is considered hacking. This includes the use of unfair client-side modifications such as auto clickers, bots, xray, baritone, and any similar software. In general, if your player is performing some action such as clicking or moving then you need to be the one doing it. You cannot use client-side modifications to control your player.
Anti Cheat Violations
The anti cheat system will detect when players are doing something which should not be possible using the vanilla Minecraft client. If this action could be used to gain an unfair advantage over other players, the player will receive an anti cheat violation. The first violation notifies the Admin team, allowing them to investigate. The second violation is broadcast in global chat, notifying the player that their actions appear to violate the server rules. The third violation will be automatically handled by the anti cheat system. If the violation was triggered by the use of obviously unfair hacks then the player will be banned, otherwise they will just be kicked. Kicked players can simply re-join the server, while banned players must appeal their ban using the contact form on our website.
Using Client-Side Modifications
The server does not endorse or recommend any client-side modifications (aka "mods") but they are very popular and many players choose to use them anyway. If you choose to use mods, we recommend that you use trusted open source mods to protect yourself from computer viruses (aka malware).
According to Kaspersky, Minecraft is the #1 game for malware. Their study found that 25% of all gaming-related malware is distributed through Minecraft mods and related software.
Players are only allowed to use mods that do not give them a competitive gameplay advantage. For example, players are allowed to use cosmetic mods such as shaders and Xaero's Minimap. Players are allowed to use freecam as long as they do not use it to change their player's location. Players are allowed to use fullbright for accessibility reasons.
