Who Trace is for

Trace is built for Roblox game developers who need professional-grade moderation and security tooling. It fits solo developers shipping their first competitive game just as well as experienced teams managing large live-service experiences with active player populations. If you want reliable anticheat, consistent moderation workflows, and a clear evidence trail, Trace is for you.

​
Key features

​
Admin Panel

A full in-experience admin interface that lets you view connected players, review flags, issue moderation actions, and manage your team’s roles - all without leaving the game or opening external tools.

​
Anticheat & Detections

Server-authoritative detection logic monitors players for common exploits and suspicious behaviour patterns. Detections are logged with timestamps and flagged automatically so your moderation team always has clear, actionable signals.

​
Player Moderation

Issue bans, warnings, and kicks directly from the admin panel or via Trace CMD. Moderation records are persisted, associated with the moderating staff member, and delivered to Discord so nothing falls through the cracks.

​
Replay Viewer

Every flagged session generates a replay you can scrub through inside the Trace admin panel. Use replays as concrete evidence when reviewing ban appeals or validating anticheat detections before taking action.

​
Trace CMD

A fast command interface built into the admin panel for experienced moderators who prefer keyboard-driven workflows. Run moderation actions, look up player histories, and manage settings without navigating menus.

​
Discord Webhooks

Trace sends structured event payloads to your Discord server for bans, warnings, kicks, detections, staff actions, and more. Configure one or more webhook endpoints in TraceConfig to route different event types to different channels.

​
Trace Chat

An integrated in-experience chat layer giving your moderation team a private, persistent communication channel separate from the public game chat - useful for coordinating during active incidents.

​
Movement Exceptions API

Expose a developer-facing API to mark specific player movements as intentional so Trace’s anticheat does not flag mechanics that are part of your game’s design (for example, speed boosts, teleports, or custom physics).

​
Permission hierarchy

Trace uses a seven-tier role hierarchy to control what each staff member can see and do. Roles are assigned through TraceConfig in ServerScriptService and enforced server-side.
