I found the hack in the video.
What's FDevs email, so I can report it, without being banned this time. Lol

I mean, if the code is open source, and you understand code, I guess you would be ok.
I mean... just link them to let me google that more you.
I would like to see fdev public acknowledge this problem......
that is the FDev email adress, but I think they aware of the problem already.
If you watched the entire video in OP you would know that they already have been informed. You don't need to report it.
For something of this magnitude, I don't really think they need multiple reports, it is pretty clear that it's accurate information.
this type of lag happens even without the fighter, Usually see it with big ships (likely why people think it's the fighter). But most cutters/vettes out in the open are laggy this way after a bit of time in combat.
Wow, this is really bad. Good thing my main platform is console, where this is not possible.
I found the answer of FDev a bit funny as well. For 1, EULAs are not enforceable in Europe (or at least EU) and 2, cheaters, by definition, don't care about rules, and this affects the games for those that follow the rules.

Lol
If FD are aware of the problem, I highly recommend they do nothing to stop the cheat from working.
But instead, set up monitoring for its effects.
Then permanently ban users with extreme prejudice.
You'd soon stop if you could have your account banned in an instant, losing all your progress, and cosmetics.
Plus it's slows "escalation" of cheat software.

How do you propose they monitor on a P2P game? The jump range and fuel usage is something they can monitor, but everything else, unless you are matched with someone at FDev, it's not possible to be monitored.
Anything can be monitored....don't be naive. It's just a factor of what they choose to monitor. They could have ED scanning your hard disk and telling them every piece of software you have installed if they wanted to (and wanted to deal with the privacy breach outrage that would follow).
I was sure there would be a 'headlook hack" tab.....I guess thats a different one.

If you're seriously expecting Frontier to take cheating seriously in this game, you're gonna have a bad time.
Don't hold your breath.
Don't hold your breath.
that's the trickster's golden rule. the best way to lure your victims is exploiting their inner desire to exploit.
on hindsight, that's clearly wrong but i hope you guys get the idea
Unfortunately you're right. History of their pvp support gives answer.
Elite uses Watchdog to monitor cheat attempts. Seems like that security software is not doing what it should. The correct way to avoid cheat in a p2p environment, without recording and cross-checking every line in the player ship's data, is to scan active processes on the player's PC and identify possible memory hackers, internet spoofers, and other software used to change memory data or internet packets sent. Watchdog should do this properly.
Hell, I've made a light and small routine with autohotkey to constantly monitor my pc and lock any "suspicious" process or service.
A player that tries to hack the memory while Elite dangerous is active, should be considered a "cheater", and be immediately disconnected, with a warning sent to future banned account consequences.

Here's how I read the OP (and the video)
Cheats exist. Here they are. Now 30 minutes on why cheating is bad.. mmmkay?
I mean really, why alert the community to a "trainer" so many of them can go out and get it for themselves? This is why mods typically disallow this kind of thread.
