You can't be serious!  They can easily make their bots online / server-based.  Which many games do, including PUBG.

I believe such bots and programs exist, but they are rarely used in this game. Tanki sucks for about 50 other reasons that are more apparent to the public

That'll probably come this year with the new mobile app.

Excuse me, no it won't. At least not this year, 2025 or 2026 maybe, but not this year.

I have seen a regular hack in the game - when a tank gets flipped it auto corrects itself.

I recently took a week-long break from tanki and I finally returned a few days ago just to see that the game is even worse now than it was a week ago. I now see that one team has a lot of real players and the other team always has a bunch of bots and only a few real players. The difference is that bots use insanely low GS, never use supplies, never use the chat, never do the objective, almost never even attack the opposing team, etc. Even when I was new to the game, I still was able to do a much better job and I am still bad at this game yet to this day. 

What I am creating this topic for is where we can discuss the sources/programs that people use to purchase bots to hack into the game and kick players out from the buyer's battle and replace about 1/3 of the buyer's opponents with these bots programmed to suck at the game. The buyer wants to have an easy win and these bots make it very easy for them.

Since I see so much of this, I suspect one of two things. The first being that tanki doesn't care about it. The second being that tanki doesn't enforce the rules. I will discuss the second suspicion later, but I will discuss the first suspicion now. I suspect that tanki doesn't care about it is because it encourages more people to spend more money so they can overpower the other team despite the bots as teammates.

The second reason is that it is supposed to be against the rules. Here are the rules that this violates:

• 2.1.2. Application or distribution of third-party software or other means for improvement/automation of game possibilities (bots, cheats), as well as programs that may deteriorate the functioning of the Game and/or the functioning of electronic devices of third persons;
• 2.1.8. Transfer of the Account or other game values to third persons; publication of any offers to sell, buy, or transfer the Account or in-game property,
• 2.2.4. Posting links to sites/hostings containing 3rd party software (cheats, programs, clients, etc.), spreading links to sites containing software that changes the game’s functionality or promises to do so;
• 2.1.9. Conspiracy – organizing battles to gain experience points and/or crystals from battle funds, through having inactive or succumbing players in a battle.

If you guys want to discuss your thoughts here about this idea, then feel free to do so. If I forgot a rule that it violates, then please call me out on it and I will thank you, then I will add it to the post.

It is horrifying that the main tanki online server is now filled with bots, which makes gameplay pointless nowadays :/
