RElated to MP/online Play.
A guy named wisler managed to join an online game invisble.
He did nt show up in the list of players or as AI in the setup screen, but
was able to rename himself and spam ( quite idiotic ) in the chatbox.
When starting the game, he was even able to send messages in the ingame
chat and a AI was spawned and playing on a base, wich was set to be
disabled.
WHen he joined the game setu chat his name wasnt wisler btw, but something
cyryptic. Cant remeber exactly, just saw his first rename when he used the
same name then me as host and spammed the chatbox.
I identified him clearly through the ip/packet log of my linux router
though, he played a mp game before with the same ip.
I would like to ask for 2 fixes:
Block ghostplayers to enter ( however he did ) like that ) Maybe related
to his cryptic name he used when he joined.
Block people renameimg themselves to exactly the same name then the host,
this can cause quite some confusion in the chat if the ghost uses it the
right way.
