Old School Runescape Dev Tracker

I'm afraid I'm not sure, I haven't worked very closely with LMS. I'll ask and edit this comment though.

Edit /u/BloodAwaits - Roq says "So I removed it based on feedback and added it into the drop table. If the occult has the stats without the damage % then sure, it would be in the starting gear still. I don't want to generally create items that don't exist outside the game and put them into LMS."

Worlds 404, 405, 408, 409, and 412 are beta worlds. You'll have to navigate to them from the world select screen rather than a world hopper.

Don't worry! We haven't forgotten. We're still working on it. We tweeted a few design ideas a couple of days ago for feedback. Once the design is finalised and it's been tested, it will be put in game.

The anti-cheating team is not part of the engine team. Positions in the anti-cheating team are typically filled internally because it's easier to ensure that candidates are trustworthy.

There are currently 6 mods in the anti-cheating team. Myself and Tyran are full time anti-cheating and the others are auxiliary members, who are split between anti-cheating and support roles.

I'll bring this up today to the devs :)

It's pretty straight forward if you know how to do it. I can teach you if you like.

^ Wait... no...

Ty will take a look :>

From what I understand, the engine team have been trying to recruit new staff for a long time but haven't been very successful. Why this is, I don't know the specifics of but there are still a number of positions available.

I'm obviously massively biased but I do agree that it should be a very high priority to improve our anti cheating systems. However, the company does have other priorities and things such as mobile, account security and clan support are also considered to be very high priority.

As you may assume, unintended and to be reverted.

They don't work in huge amounts of wealth, they quite often move off less than 10m at a time. Players move this kind of wealth around all the time.

Already seen, though thank you! this is why we do betas :)

Potentially is a strong word, here!

To clarify, our desired outcome is that nothing SHOULD change with the exception of PvP combat and the scenario 1 person can fight without being able to fight back.

That's why we've opened up beta worlds specifically with these changes for you all to browse on as we expect you to come across some things in the main game world we may not have.

Currently in the live game the line of attack between two points is not symmetrical. What this beta does is make that symmetrical. The place where it will effect is PvP where players are able to stand in specific spots in relation to their opponent and not be able to attack back.

It would be difficult to find a requirement that a hand played gold farmer wouldn't be willing to do themselves. We could lock it behind some really high level requirement but it seems unfair on legitimate lower level players who would also be prevented from doing the content.

If we find evidence of them RWTing their wealth, they will be banned. Moving it to another account isn't conclusive evidence that they're going to RWT it.

I don't have an exact breakdown to hand but the majority will be the F2P 'suicide' bots that get replaced very quickly

Yes, they're only activated in beta worlds.
