I don't really know how to report on this properly, but someone should probably take a look at this issue.

What happened A user named Carbonitex managed to hack into the server to teleport around and see through blocks.

We caught him red handed and he didn't even deny it. We couldn't film it unfortunately, but here is the conversation that followed after his ban: carbonitex 1 carbonitex 2 carbonitex 3

In the server saw him zip around in the map.

Took us a while to find him

Interesting. Sounds like the guys modified his client side code. We are usually pretty careful about what we expose on the server, for that reason, but I guess setting position we just trust the client. @SeanAtr0n think that's worth fixing? Not sure how feasible it is. Like all I can think for a fix would be that the server tries to like detect really fast lateral movement and treats that as cheating.

It might not be easy to fix, but I think it's worthwhile to do so. The fix you propose would already be a big improvement though, as long as admins are excluded from this check (teleport and fly commands). I can't really see preventing seeing through textures however, since that's easily modifiable client side.
