All details about objects are streamed to the players, else they couldnt be shown in the client. And all these details just have to be fetched from the game. You cant fully protect against that, else you couldnt show any objects.
Randomizing the object ids could at least help a bit. A streamer already does that. People cant get the full map at once, as the server just sends parts of it to the players. The IDs will also be mixed up, making it harder to get the correct map. But Ive got no idea how far "hackers" are with identifying duplicate objects.
Youll have to live with that, whenever something is visible, people are able to copy it, even without special software but just with their eyes. Just keep in mind that a server is more than just the map. Even if people copy your map, they cant copy your script and the stuff that makes it special.
