Are there any ways +somehow to prevent (or at least try to prevent) hacks and cheats, even if +hacker +knows the source code? Can the game company keep the network part of their +game in secret +(though I don't see how, since its clearly using NeL in this case). + +I appologise if my question is completely unrelated to NeL and Nevrax game, +since all the details are kept in secret, but I think that this is very +important question. + +By the way, thanks for the great engine!
