[suggestion] explicitly notifiy user on game ui that cheating cvars are used #396

It is suggested that post a message that a cheating cvar is set, especially to notify users that passively influenced via spectating. Since the console log is often flooded by other messages, it is suggested to put a warning in chat window.

Challenges can change cheat cvars

If there's a bug that's causing replicated convars to not reset, that's what we need to fix.

But the convar you reported being changed before is not replicated, so it's even more confusing.

A client connected to a server, cannot detect or know the host is cheating.

If there's a bug that's causing replicated convars to not reset, that's what we need to fix.

That is the real issue ^

But the convar you reported being changed before is not replicated, so it's even more confusing.

I think indirectly, the convar might be influenced by other data, but would need to check. It's an edge case anyway, since connecting to another host solves the issue.
