Overview
What Sunrise Anticheat is, how it fits your stack, and how to use this documentation.
Sunrise Anticheat helps private game servers keep play fair: we inspect client–server behavior for patterns typical of bots, injected tools, or tampered clients, and block abusive traffic before it reaches your game logic. Legitimate players connect as usual; suspicious automation and cheating tooling are stopped at the door.
What you get
- Dashboard-first workflow — create a project, download protection bundles per release, tune configuration, and (when you need it) unlock premium client features with SG credits.
- Release pipeline — published builds ship as archives you drop into your client’s layout; your team is notified when new versions go live.
- Public configuration API — your game client receives a non-secret project configuration payload (connection hints, UI toggles, optional Discord hooks, etc.). Sensitive secrets stay on your server.
Who this documentation is for
- Server admins & operators integrating the protection bundle and tuning project settings.
- Developers wiring the client to your auth endpoint and validating behavior in staging before production.
