What it does
Place a block where one was just broken — and it's gone again. That's CivBreak: the cheat digs out a spot honestly once, then passes the old digging off as new and removes every following block in that spot with no delay.
It's a weapon against defence. In anarchy crystal PvP the opponent covers up with obsidian and it vanishes the moment it's placed; in BedWars a rebuilt bed defence doesn't last a second. Whoever holds the spot loses no matter how many blocks they bring — and from the outside it looks more like a server bug than someone's cheat.
How to spot it
- A block placed in the same spot disappears instantly, again and again
- There's no new digging — no cracks, no swings — yet the block still breaks
- Obsidian vanishes faster than any pickaxe could break it
- It happens at one or two spots near the player, usually at an opponent's feet
How it gets caught
Every new block has to be dug from scratch: start, the time its tool needs, finish. CivBreak sends finish for the same position without a new start, or right after a block appears there, hoping the time from the first dig still counts. The check tracks which exact block the digging belongs to and times each one separately.
Fast re-breaking can be honest — soft blocks, or instamining with Efficiency and Haste. So the check looks at blocks that can't be broken that fast, and at a series rather than one case.
