Should I forget about preventing noclip exploiters on my game?
I want to spawn a block that becomes collidable for certain players that are inside it only after they get out of that part. Here is how it works:
- The server script creates NoCollisionConstraints for the collisionfiltering for everyplayer on a region equivalent to the blocks size and pos (which doesnt have any orientation, so the region is aligned with it).
- To remove the constraints, I tried to check magnitude on a loop, then regionswithwhitelist on a loop, and then I tried checking with TouchEnded. All of them server-sided.
- All of these options bump the players sometimes because of connection lag, so I added a clone of the check function to a localscript, like a double check.
It wont matter if I put a localscript like this that can be exploitable right? Its not like exploiters wouldnt insert their own NoCollisionConstraints anyway.

Well I guess its basically Impossible to prevent noclippers unless you make a custom character that the server controls, which would lag input for the player. I think its better to just stop trying to prevent noclippers and instead work on a kick system with votes or a cheat finder that from time to time create a small loop that checks a specific player compares walkspeed with distance travelled and what parts currently touches them.
In my work I stopped making the server from checking the hitbox and started checking only locally now. No bumps are happening anymore, and the server check was actually what was interrupting the local one.
