The idea is great. HOWEVER!!!! You really messed up by letting it say WHO is using the mods, which WILL start witch hunts no matter what you try to say.

Even if your idea is great, which I really think it is, mentioning the usernames of who is using it is going to cause issues. It gives too much information to whoever is using this. Not including the username and making the info more vague will definitely fix all these problems. For example, make it simply say that <enemy here> was killed by <x-damage> in <x-shots>. That way if someone really doesn't like cheaters, they just can kick everyone instead of screenshotting it, ranting on reddit, and causing the entire dark side of the community to witch hunt, dox, and cause infinite other issues for them.
CAUSE THEY WILL! It's been proven how absurdly scummy the bad side of this community is.

This especially is bad because many of us use these mods in a non-cheaty way. I have over 150 total mods installed and some are OP mods for playing solo. I sometimes forget to turn them off when joining a random lobby or hosting in public mode when my friends aren't online, and make the mistake of using one of them.

I'll then stop using whichever stratagem or weapon, or whatever it is that caused it, but having my username be shown immediately can totally ruin things permanently, with high chances of me being forced to play solo forever.

I'm giving it 3-stars because the idea is amazing as I've said - but executed horribly wrong, even if it wasn't intentional.

Are you planning to start a witch hunt with this messed‑up stuff? So that the community members will start fighting with each other?

Why simply observe sketchy gameplay when I can install another mod and give myself the added hassle of figuring out whether someone is actually cheating or just being falsely flagged? Honestly, that's on me for expecting something different. It was almost a good mod.

A malicious, ideologically driven mod that claims to be God’s messenger and stands on the moral high ground, but in reality engages in witch hunts. When it falsely flags ordinary players as cheaters, it shifts the blame onto the users—such double standards are truly beyond words.

Remember when a helldivers 2 player put up a challenge to the devs to try their actual game and put money on the line, and then reddit DEYSTROYED HIS LIFE?
Yeah, whether you're for or against witch hunting people on a PVE game for rebalancing their game, doesnt mean Reddit isnt beyond Doxxing players for it.

I get the sentiment here but this would only be downloaded by people who want to use this info to potentially harm others. (If not, a majority.)

downloaded just to leave a rating, wont install this vibe coded, non-functional garbage. you side with the reddit chuds and call out people for "having an ego" while also acting like youre doing a good service and parading your own ego, cowboybingus pointed out most but not all of the problems and why this mod doesnt function as you intended, you remove comments from the nexus page like a coward. stop acting like anything you do matters to anybody here.

Типа сирисли, чувак, это абсолютно НЕЭТИЧНО смотреть информацию лодаута другого игрока, ЕЩЁ БОЛЕЕ НЕЭТИЧНО вырезанное заявление об АВТО-КИКЕ и АВТО-ВАРНЕ
Мало того что ты глэйзер, так ты ещё и хочешь натравлять хостов на игроков с модами, так большинство из которых НЕ МЕШАЮТ твоей игре, это просто отвратительно
Если тебе кто-то не нравится и ты подозреваешь в читерстве без того чтобы НЕЭТИЧНО просматривать чужую информацию - ты всегда можешь просто кикнуть его
+ абсолютно ужасная оптимизация, больше никогда не делай моды кроски

What seems like a good idea at first will probably turn into toxic behavior toward anyone using any mods they disagree

Mod promotes toxicity and witch hunting. as well as being vibe coded and not even functions correctly per CowboyBingus himself

'Fire rate checks are completely trivial to bypass, and all refill or infinite-ammo cheats evade it. Network jitter (lag), however, causes significant problems for innocent players above 60ms.
Peers own their ammo capacity. The host has no means of validating what the peer says is accurate. Again, easily evaded as seen above.
Spare magazine detection was just outright broken in testing. I couldn't even really get it to function properly.
One-shot kills fail to properly distinguish from vanilla gameplay. Dropships being removed while alive from the game, for example, will flag the last player to shoot it and boot them.
Off-arc tank guns also flag vanilla gameplay. And, moreover, this one doesn't even bother to check the person is flagging it is even in the tank.
Tank speed flags any innocent player where two lag-corrections occur under 60s.
Your tank seating code is also completely broken and reading the wrong addresses. A player who climbs into the driver, then exits and enters the gunner seat, can be flagged and booted because of this.
Automated reloads is trivially evaded with a small random delay.
Stratagem loadout checks were also trivially evaded because, again, the host does not validate peer claims.
I didn't bother going through any other checks because there was so much wrong that I just stopped there. This mod is harmful to innocent players while still enabling modders.

The only proper solution is a full-fledged detection mechanism, which as you said, does not exist. That is the whole reason I stopped development on my own.'

Mod to tell you if someone's cheating, but it wrecks your game, lags it to hell and crashes it also? This is a mod for redditors who hate to see people enjoying helldivers

While i support against one hit kill and god mode, other types of modding should be allowed, otherwise just make your lobby private and play alone or with friends.
This is plain and simple a witch hunt tool and there are enough people that would take "detections" regardless of what it is 100% serious and kick you for it.

You're the worst guy for siding with Arrowhead, aren't you? Users use mods because Arrowhead, which has been throwing feedback, ignored our opinions Whether it's convenience or cheating, you're siding with them—you don't deserve to be here
