I want the Left4green Garry's Mod server to have a ping limit of 250ms.

I really don't like seeing people like this, everytime I play.
I see that people can lag over 300ms, 500ms, 1 second and still be allowed to play.
Is that fair?

Human players could be spraying a zombie full of bullets, and realise he is standing still and not dying, but all of a sudden he skips movement and is already attacking a human player.

If this lagger is a human, he could avoid being killed by zombies, if he simply skips movement and the zombie happened to be hitted a delayed body of that lagger.

Nope.

Re-opened topic. Clavus, let the man discuss it.

I agree with him, we used to have a ping kicker in the old days which was set around 300 ms, if I remember correctly.

Who removed it anyway? Ping limits are there for a reason. Someone with high ping makes other people lag and besides that its hard to kill him if hes lagging alot. So i say RETURN ping limit

Ping limiter was set on 250 if i remember it right.

It was a SourceMod plugin and not baked-into the gamemode. Probably got lost somewhere.

You shouldnt get instantkicked if you have over 300 ms ping, I have a friend with a weird internet ( he has alwways 900 ms ping when commencting ), but yeah, I would like to see people pingkicked if they have more then 400

Everyone's connections is like that.
But their pings are able to stablize within 1 minute.

a ping limit should be added its really anyoing when you try to kill a zombie when half of the time its like shooting a ghost this pretty much gets the humans killed really fast and from some words of players others abuse this kind of thing 250-300 ping kicker would be best

Source based game should be limited @ 200 ping.
after 200 the gameplay will get dodgy....

I would like this, random guy just warps accross the map and kills you (which you can do nothing about) is really bad.

Although you should add 30 seconds of lag grace for spikes which people can do nothing about.

True, don't want everyone being kicked on a lag spike

Can we get rid of this guy?

I think he could have his rates set incorrectly as well because he is lagging a lot for someone with 350ms ping.

Can the server force the rates for clients?
If so, then that should be done.

And get rid of those who experience too much packet loss.
