Anything you send to the client can be messed around by malicious users, it’s just how clients work.
Also GTA doesn’t have proper client/server model as it’s just P2P but dunno i haven’t been active on this forum

It’s 2026 now, so I’ve edited this post to add some new ways to protect your server - Sanitization convars and blocking network game events.

I also added some simple script-level detections in a new section Simple script checks and cleaned up some of the phrasing in the post.
