Is there a way to tell if a player is throttling in-game?(Throttling as in players configuring their settings to where their walking speed is a bit higher)

Check their WalkSpeed
Have them check their time with the server time to see if the rate of change is about equal

It doesn't increase their walkspeed. It allows their frame rate to be 60 instead of 30. And yes it is trackable and I use it in my game to ban people who use it.

@buddy
more like 40, not 60.

You can track it.

You could use a local script that counts the frame rate with RunService.Stepped:wait(), and disconnect the player if it's too high.

What if I just want my FPS to be 60?

Can't we just assume that everyone would appreciate a framerate above 30?

No, with a framerate of 60, all of the physics near your character are sped up twice. I've witnessed it in my old place.

Having not even had roblox installed for a good number of years, is the framerate actually locked to 30?

Instead of kicking, you guys should add so many local parts that the framerate drops to like 5 FPS.

How about if you track the player's velocity relative to the walkspeed?
Idk...

No, it's not biology or psychology, it's oreology. The study of attraction.

I got it from the first couple of posts, but thanks anyway. There's no need to post here anymore :/

@Arceus: Nice idea. I might have to try that, because people would rage so much at that.

> their frame rate to be 60

My frame rate is at 60 in most light games anyway, and I do NOT use it to cheat.

Just because my computer > others doesn't mean I should be getting banned from games....

That is ridiculous.

Fools don't know that doubling how fast their games run doubles how many times I can hit them with a sword in less than a second.

I think you should kick them if they are not going faster. This would increase pressure on devs to raise the FPS lock to a decent and standardised number like 60.

Or delta-time everything and make speedhacks 100% useless.

No it isn't. Roblox caps it at 30. Your monitor's refresh rate may be 60, but roblox's is 30.

If they go at 60 you must spawn a thousand localparts until its fixed.
