Major Bug On Servers

ChapitoTTV.Official · April 16, 2022, 3:24pm

Hello everyone,

There is a bug where the players can open another instance of FiveM and can join the server and duplicate everything they own back to themselves.

I’m wondering if anyone’s also dealt with this + if there’s a patch for it?

Sounds like a bug with one of your resources, best to ask resource author to add additional checks for when a user with same identifier connects twice.

It’s a little strange since this works on all the servers I’ve tried, I feel it’s something beyond my server or a resource.?

When someone joins, check to see if someone with the same license is already online and if so, reject them.
Something like this:

esx-framework/esx-legacy/blob/2dacb08f0ff52b165a16aa3219faceb21691d7e7/[esx]/es_extended/server/main.lua#L41

      
        
            	RegisterNetEvent('esx:onPlayerJoined')
            	AddEventHandler('esx:onPlayerJoined', function()
            		while not next(ESX.Jobs) do Wait(50) end
            
            
		if not ESX.Players[source] then
            			onPlayerJoined(source)
            		end
            	end)
            end
            
            
function onPlayerJoined(playerId)
            	local identifier = ESX.GetIdentifier(playerId)
            	if identifier then
            		if ESX.GetPlayerFromIdentifier(identifier) then
            			DropPlayer(playerId, ('there was an error loading your character!\nError code: identifier-active-ingame\n\nThis error is caused by a player on this server who has the same identifier as you have. Make sure you are not playing on the same Rockstar account.\n\nYour Rockstar identifier: %s'):format(identifier))
            		else
            			local result = MySQL.scalar.await('SELECT 1 FROM users WHERE identifier = ?', { identifier })
            			if result then
            				loadESXPlayer(identifier, playerId, false)
            			else
            				createESXPlayer(identifier, playerId)

FiveM has an argument that allows a second instance of the client to be opened, like @TheIndra has already stated, this would be a bug with the framework or resources that are being used, the owner of the server would simple need to check if the players identifier is already active on the server if so prevent that second client from joining.
