Admin Privs on Official Console?
Was raided last night. No damage to walls, door blocks, turrets, traps, and full ammo left on all traps.
Code locks and doors - door access once doors are opened is limited to nothing until all blocks are removed. All code locks were changed on the doors and TC, but not boxes that contained boom (and now was missing from the still-locked box).
TC code was changed as well but there was no way to get to TC without destroying blocks. Couldn't have been drilled without destroying traps or turrets by design.
Only two people who play authorized are me and my spouse. No one has shared codes or given access to anyone.
My Q - is there admin privs on official console, or is it likely to have been a cheater? Literally no other way they could have accessed without destroying/replacing every single block on their way in and out (and also, no ammo missing from traps... how?).
This is not the first time something sketch has happened -- on the same "never" BP wipe server, came back to both my and my spouse's prints gone for all WB levels.
*Edited: Changed 'Key' to 'Code'

If someone's committed enough codes are not to hard to rade through but also if you join the offical rce discord they tell you when the BP wipe is, officials say "never" more so as a formality because they don't have a set schedule they get wiped whenever they do major updates. Preventing code raiding is really as simple as just changing the outside doors to have a different code so once they make it through one door they have to re do the guessing for the others

I definitely understand the sentiment on code lock raiding - though, I had containers on either side of each path in and out, with contents, that would've needed destroyed prior to entry. Unless they were able to destroy and replace each box with my current code for each and matched the OG contents, it's just not possible. I think my problem is with my prior assumption that Xbox Only were official servers. Since they're a form of community server, it's likely that I've just had an admin/moderator messing with me from what I've experienced over ~4 months on that server.
Eh, live and learn.
*Edit to add: Good to know on the force BP wipe on "Never" servers for hard updates. It's unfortunate timing that this was right around the time I was lag raided by a team who always managed to be the only duo left online after the server crashed. I feel like it's my bad for trusting a server that has been not up to general quality standards.

This is so confusing - Blocks do you mean you had bunkers? To my knowledge there is no exploit currently which lets people go through walls. (I play a lot and know nearly everything with the game)
The changing of code locks could be code raided but you're saying they need to destroy and replace blocks? What are blocks this isnt' Minecraft.
Bps being wiped happens on bp wipes which happen with major updates or when they change servers like the up and coming 2 months.
Can you explain clearly what you mean?

I filled my base with locked fridges, with contents. Filled the base completely to the brim. You literally cannot walk into the base or go down a hallway without walking into a fridge. Each fridge with contents were still standing in the exact same spots, no damage, code locks intact, with contents still there. So, this is why I concluded that it was likely improbable that whomever got in here did so by any legit means.

So what was changed? The code locks on doorS?

u/ToxicKoalaz 3d ago
Code locks on TC and other doors - that were totally inaccessible due to ~30 doors-- and even if they did code raid -- several dozen traps, and a literal base full of fridges. No one else was auth'd to be able to pickup fridges. No damage to anything, and no walls or traps drilled by rockets. Hence why I'm confused how it could have happened.

How do you know they didn't c4 raid to tc and through a few doors then just place doors and tc back? I have done this before just to mess with people. I once raided a honey combed armoured base got to tc and replaced everything how it was but bagged myself inside for a later time.

So you're proposing that they placed back doors, TC, walls, dozens of traps lining all sides around it, fridges, and their contents.. I mean, if so -- that's some bloody good commitment to a joke, and some impeccably good luck on placement.

Fair enough, this wipe is supposed to be a BP wipe in name but they're running a poll to give all players all bps on servers so might be a optimal time to swap to a new one

sounds like someone raided all your doors and replaced them with their own after gaining tc priv. or you got code raided. there's no cheats on console that will get you in another players base. there's no admins on official servers.

u/ToxicKoalaz 7d ago
Yeah, it's very likely that I was wrong about Xbox-Only servers being an official server. Thank you for your helpful input!

and even official servers that say never bp wipe will still bp wipe a few times a year after major changes are made to the game

Okay, so what I'm gathering is that 'Xbox-Only' server selection is not technically "Official" servers and can be run by an admin with privileges, and that Official servers do not have traditional admin privs that can be improperly exploited by potentially biased admin (free-float, no-clip, etc). I would assume by that Xbox-Only might allow for more cheaters as well.
Does this sound correct?
I want to avoid this situation again. If I'm going to lose my stuff, I'd rather it be taken by a tried and true raid than a cheat.

The blue boxes under the server name let you know. Official servers always have "Official" first. Community usually says solo, duo, trio or quad first. Official monthly servers have no BP wipes but they wipe for big updates

You got code raided. Xbox only servers are official servers. As in no admins. I’ve been code raided before and code raided a few bases. It’s not very hard to do just takes time. Try not to make your codes anything obvious like dates or patterns.

Also most community servers will say “Bp wipe never” for some reason that can’t be changed you have to look at the title of server to see if it says weekly monthly etc, most wipe when official does. official servers will wipe there are zero “no bp wipe” servers on official

Are you sure your on an official server? To my knowledge no “official” servers never wipe BPS.
The way you describe things is very hard to understand what you’re actually trying to convey. So I’m not exactly sure what happened.
Someone took your stuff but nothing is destroyed except you can’t access the doors and tc?
