A Tesla was able to damage enemies across the entire/almost the entire map. Is this an augment or a cheat?

The lightning from him could move across the entire or almost the entire map, so the flashes looked like Railgun shots, except they were clearly Tesla flashes. It spread from maybe most tanks in my team and damaged them all. The damage from each flash was small though, which made me wonder if it was a balanced augment and not a cheat.

I tried to look for the Tesla player but could never see him, but I'd guess he camped somewhere.

Non-crit tesla damage gets evenly distributed among tanks it is targeting; aka if it is hitting 2 tanks at once each tank will only take half damage (Unless it gets a crit). Likely the reduced damage was because the shot was spread among your entire team rather than anything else.
I don't know for sure if there is an augment for this, but considering it from a balance standpoint it is so egregious that I just can't imagine the dev team creating such an augment so I'd guess it is a cheat.

Well, there's no limit to how far a Tesla can reach as long as it's able to keep expanding its range by linking enemies and/or ball lightning so... it's technically possible.

Do you have a screenshot of the TAB menu of the player showing his augments?

 

Or do you have a video?
