Am I allowed to cheat in a 1 vs 1 with a friend?

[a.4747]

My question is if I am allowed to cheat in private games with some friends. I wouldn’t do it in public matches, only against my friends for a joke.

@a-4747 If you are playing online, yes you will be banned regardless if you are in private match or joining a server. If you want to play with your friends with cheats then you can use LAN mode (the up arrow next to green play button on the launcher).

@a-4747 yes either use lan mode like pistakilla said (in which case you have to use the console to connect to your friend using his ip) or have whoever hosts the game load a mod menu on his client using this method: https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/6966/how-to-use-a-mod-menu-without-injecting-loading-gsc-scripts-client-sided

@a-4747 If you are playing LAN/Private match then this is totally legal.
but if u are trying to cheat online then this is where u can get banned 100% for giving unfair advantages to other player.
