Bots prevention system, version 2.0!
authors: @Agent @Caparso
---
history of this project reaching back to 2015 and we are back in the business!
special credits goes to: @Tryskell @Rootware @Hasha @SweeTs
(each of them brought something to this project, in the present or in the past - we simply won't let it go)

 

how does it work?
prevention system was designed to put an end to unfair practices during farming process.
extermination of monsters triggers an event with an limited time in order to validate human being behaviour, player have to choose corresponding pattern to match the randomly generated image. smooth and easy to solve for the human eye, doesn't bother the players much - as simple as possible!

 

new version brings:

  • more improvements and safeguards against attempts to bypass validation process (we are still working to make it even better in the future).
  • visual changes supporting new behaviours and more user-friendly solutions, but is also better from an admin point of view (main concept remains the same and no client-side modifications are needed).
  • an eye on players involving summons/pets into farming process.
  • possible checks against supports. system counts party kills adjusting the counter based on the number and type of professions of the characters in the party, then triggers a verification process for selected classes of your choice (available variations: PP, SWS, BD, EE, SE, BP, WC, OL).
  • rewarding system awards player with a selected type of item for passing the validation process correctly (we want to make lineage world a better place, so the whole process give in-game event vibes).
  • visible countdown and additional safe period of time, giving the player some extra seconds to adapt to the situation.
  • opportunity to allow a second attempt, so player can try one more time in case of incorrect verification.
  • adaptation to acis' latest public branch (commit 401) - neat code, minimally violates existing source.
  • most features can be turned on/off via configuration files, it's a matter of how much control you want to have over farming areas - the decision is yours!

To detect players using Adrenaline, you can implement a system that monitors game activity and identifies patterns of behavior that are indicative of botting. To detect these patterns, you can implement algorithms that analyze player behavior and flag any instances that deviate significantly from what is considered normal. Additionally, you can also gather data on known botting software and their behavior patterns, and use this information to develop more sophisticated detection algorithms.

I'm not judging your share, just thinking out loud. 🙂

adrenaline's authors are smart and highly experienced, plus with a proper tools you can bypass almost everything. we spend a lot of time in order to make this system functional and user-friendly. there are way more better solutions to fight with bots, but most of the time it also a big deal for normal players and it hits 'em in the face somehow. in my opinion nowadays mmorpgs are semi-automatic where word semi is so important in this puzzle. we still want players to be a part of the game so they have to keep an eye on their bots while farming!

You can use with MathUtil.checkIfInRange instead of distance2D.

Changeset 389 (1660)

       - Rework Point2D / Location distance methods ; they are now called distance2D/distance3D and isIn2DRadius/isIn3DRadius for proper usage.

    • Roblox has become one of the world’s most influential user‑generated gaming platforms, attracting millions of players and creators every day. What makes Roblox unique is that it is not just a place to play games—it is a place where anyone can build their own. With Roblox Studio, even complete beginners can design immersive worlds, interactive experiences, and full‑fledged games. This guide will walk you through the essential steps to create your first Roblox game, while also helping you understand how features like Roblox Robux fit into the creator ecosystem.       1. What Is Roblox Studio and Why Use It? Roblox Studio is the official development environment used to create every game on the platform. It is free, accessible, and designed for creators of all skill levels. Whether you want to build a simple obstacle course or a complex simulation game, Roblox Studio provides the tools you need. The platform’s success comes from its user‑generated content model. Players can create games, publish them, and even earn Roblox Robux through in‑game purchases, game passes, or developer products. While earning Robux is not the focus for beginners, understanding its role can motivate you to improve your creations over time.   2. Setting Up Roblox Studio Before you start building, you need to install and set up Roblox Studio. Steps to get started Download Roblox Studio from the official Roblox website. Install and open the application. Log in using your Roblox account. Choose a template or start with a blank Baseplate. For beginners, templates like Obby, Village, or Racing provide a structured starting point. They include pre‑built elements that help you learn how different parts of a game work.   3. Understanding the Interface Roblox Studio may look overwhelming at first, but each panel has a clear purpose. Learning the interface early will make your development process smoother. Key panels Explorer: Shows all objects in your game world. Properties: Displays editable settings for selected objects. Viewport: The 3D workspace where you build your world. Toolbox: Contains free models, scripts, and assets. Home / Model / Test tabs: Provide tools for building, editing, and testing. Spend a few minutes clicking around, selecting objects, and adjusting their properties. This hands‑on exploration helps you understand how everything fits together.   4. Building Your First Game World Once you’re familiar with the interface, it’s time to start building. Using Parts Roblox Studio uses “Parts” as the basic building blocks. You can insert: Blocks Spheres Cylinders Wedges These can be resized, rotated, and moved to create platforms, walls, buildings, or obstacles. Using the Toolbox The Toolbox allows you to drag pre‑made assets into your game. This is extremely helpful for beginners, but choose assets carefully. Some community models include unnecessary scripts that may affect performance. Look for items marked as “Verified” or created by trusted developers. Organizing Your Workspace As your game grows, organization becomes important. Use folders in the Explorer panel to group objects logically: “Obstacles” “SpawnPoints” “Decorations” Good organization saves time and prevents confusion later.   5. Adding Gameplay with Scripts Roblox games use Lua, a beginner‑friendly scripting language. You don’t need to be a programmer to start, but learning basic scripting will greatly expand what you can create. Simple scripts you can try Making a part disappear when touched Creating a moving platform Adding checkpoints Giving players speed boosts Here’s a simple example: a script that prints a message when a player touches a part. Lua: local part = script.Parent   part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)     print("A player touched the part!") end) Even small scripts like this help you understand how interactions work in Roblox.   6. Testing Your Game Testing is essential. Roblox Studio provides several testing modes to simulate gameplay. Use the “Play” button to: Walk around your world Test scripts Check spawn points Look for bugs Ensure platforms and obstacles work correctly You can also use Play Here, Run, and Play Solo to test different aspects of your game.   7. Adding UI and Game Logic A polished game needs more than objects—it needs user interface elements and clear rules. Common UI elements Timers Score counters Health bars Buttons Pop‑up messages You can create UI using ScreenGui objects inside the StarterGui folder. Roblox provides templates for text labels, buttons, and frames, making it easy to design simple interfaces.   8. Optimizing Your Game A smooth game keeps players engaged. Here are some optimization tips: Remove unused parts and scripts. Avoid too many moving objects. Use low‑poly models when possible. Test on mobile devices—many Roblox players use phones. Keep lighting simple to improve performance. Optimization ensures your game runs well for all players, not just those with powerful devices.   9. Publishing Your Game Once your game is playable, you can publish it to Roblox. Steps to publish Click File → Publish to Roblox. Enter a name, description, and genre. Choose whether the game is public or private. Set permissions and access settings. After publishing, you can share the link with friends or the Roblox community. If you eventually want to monetize your game, you can add game passes or developer products that players can purchase using Roblox Robux. This is optional for beginners, but it becomes important as your game grows.   10. Improving Your Game Over Time The best Roblox games are updated regularly. After publishing, pay attention to: Player feedback Bug reports Suggestions from friends Analytics (visits, playtime, retention) Add new levels, improve visuals, or introduce new mechanics to keep players coming back.   11. Learning and Growing as a Creator Roblox provides many resources to help you improve: Roblox Creator Hub Developer Forum YouTube tutorials Community Discord servers The more you practice, the more confident you’ll become. Many successful developers started as beginners just like you—and some now earn significant amounts of Roblox Robux through their creations.   Final Thoughts Creating your first Roblox game is an exciting journey. You don’t need advanced skills or expensive tools—just creativity and curiosity. Start small, experiment with templates, learn basic scripting, and gradually build your skills. With time and persistence, you can create a game that players around the world will enjoy.
    • Hello it seems you can't receive PMs, it won't let me, do you use discord?
    • Hello after returning to lineage 2, I was wanting to start some local server development for a few friends and me to play around with but for some reason I'm having trouble after so many years to find a stable high five client. The clients I have found either have crash issue, many errors in the client log files or freeze after only a day or two of playing (autofarming for a day for example, you'll go to teleport after a farm session and the client freezes).   I've played a few High Five servers and it seems a lot of them have been able to optimize it to avoid these problems.  We are running multiple clients per PC so this does sound essential.   I've heard one major feature that is helping client stability is the ability to clear cache/memory without restarting the game or something along those lines.   So I'm wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of obtaining a High Five client that is clean, optimized and decrypted to be able to add customs items etc. for a fair price.
