# Reach

Config path: `checks.fight.reach`\
Permission (bypass): `nocheatplus.checks.fight.reach`\
Exemption: `FIGHT_REACH`

The Fight.Reach check prevents players from *consistenly* over-reaching.

| Option                | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    |
| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| survivaldistance      | Maximum attack distance for survival and adventure gamemode.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   |
| penalty               | How long should a player have to wait to hit other entities after triggering the check. (ms)                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   |
| reduce                | Whether or not the dynamic *survivaldistance* feature should be enabled. If players hit too close at the *survivaldistance*, the maximum reach is reduced, so it is harder to use killaura. A player that hits between the dynamic limit and the *survivaldistance* limit gets a silent penalty without violation level added. |
| precision             | If true, the check will subtract from the calculated reach distance the player's own hitbox radious (0.3 blocks).                                                                                                                                                                                                              |
| reducedistance        | Maximum amount of distance by which the *survivaldistance* can be reduced (Blocks).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |
| reducestep            | Takes effect when a player hits at a rather long distance (blocks). This is to prevent killauras getting too many hits in a row at too big distance.                                                                                                                                                                           |
| Improbable *feedonly* | Decide the influence this check should have when contributing to the Improbable check analysis. If false, this check can directly incur Improbable **violations** with its data. If true this check will only contribute in feeding Improbable with its data.                                                                  |
| Improbable *weight*   | The weight this check should have when feeding improbable. **NOTE**: the effect is inverted here: higher the value = less the weight this check will have when feeding Improbable. Set to 0.0 if you don't want this check to feed Improbable at all.                                                                          |

{% hint style="warning" %}
Because of lag the reach distance isn't a fixed value and may increase/decrease, reach is for that reason designed to be dynamic and adapt to server lag if needed.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
The maximum reach for attacking is set to 3.0 blocks client-side, the server however allows players to hit up to 6 blocks maximum to compensate for latency, this can be easily exploited by cheaters to always attack at the maximum range the server will allow.
