In vanilla Drills3D, touching magma destroys your drill. However, a known glitch allows players to clip past magma veins if they approach at a specific angle. Exploiting this is widely considered cheating, as it bypasses the game’s primary risk-reward system.
| Metric | How to Capture | Use | |--------|----------------|-----| | Rule breaches | Increment a counter each time the rule engine flags a violation. | Calculates the Fairness Score. | | Proximity alerts | Distance between player colliders < 0.5 m triggers a “danger zone” flag. | Helps teach safe spacing. | | Technical execution | Velocity & angle of the ball at release, joint angles from IMU data. | Provides traditional skill feedback. | | Sportsmanship gestures | Detect a high‑five by checking hand‑hand distance < 0.2 m for ≥ 1 s. | Bonus points in the Fairness Score. |
Fairness Score Formula (example):
[ \textFairness Score = 100 - (5 \times \textFouls) - (2 \times \textProximity Alerts) + (3 \times \textPositive Gestures) ]
