Cheating while stealing
« on: February 19, 2011, 04:33:56 pm »

I didn't know where to put my topic so i just created here. Okay here we go, i got 300% stealing and pickpocket and i can steal about 1000-3000 caps all at once and no way to steal more because every time it will fail. Today at gunrunners player ZOHAN stole from me 18k caps in 1 sec like it was cheat or something. Does anybody know what i am talking about? Is this bannable?

Edit: In the left monitor it said ZOHAN was spotted by guards while stealing x20 times

I have no thief char, so excuse my nooblike question... :P Isnt there a button like "take all" when you steal from inv^^?

Cause what you describe happened to me pretty often, my inventory was stolen empty (10 to 20 different items disappear in 1 second) alot times in NCR.

Stealing 18000 caps at once is a lot harder than stealing 3000 caps, but it is still possible. There aren't any cheats that can improve your actual skill/ chance of success.

Prolly victim has 1 PE and thief has 300% steal is more realistic.

There's something wrong there.  When stealing, the Take All button doesn't work.  It sure would be nice, but you have to take everything separately.  Also, caps are different than any other items.  You can only steal a certain amount of caps based on your steal skill, even though they weight 0 grams.

yea but does luck effect steal to cause am not sure.

I'm 95% sure that luck has no bearing on steal whatsoever.

But i don't know how to explain that like he had some mod or program that is stealing caps by one but too fast

It could have been just a rare occasion. Stealing is based on dice roll after all.

Becuase he was spotted taking your shit not failing.

Spotted means he took shit and its ok to kill him.

Failed means he didnt get shit and you can kill him.

and if it really said it 20 times i feel sorry for you :C.

x20 times
Means he did it "20" times by small ammount per try, spoted, but not failed. If he did it in 1 second, then he's korean starcraft pro-gamer with uber apm, or used 3rd party stuff, don't know.

it is possible to use a bot to steal but that would take longer than '1 second' are you sure he was that quick?
