No Authentication or Score Checking

Open vorpalhex opened this issue 9 years ago • 1 comments

The backend just accepts any score that gets sent to it. This could probably be improved:

  1. Throttle sending scores to be reasonable distances apart
  2. Prevent sending impossibly good scores
  3. Maybe tie it to some sort of oauth so scores can be traced to a particular user?

Indeed and I'm fully aware of that. However, I don't really have time to fix that right now, but if anyone would like to fix it they are free to submit a pull request :)

I do have some sort of very basic check for this in my other game, where I do like you suggest in 2) where I check for number of clicks compared to score etc and see if that is reasonable.

But thanks for pointing it out!
