Better High Ping Kicker (c) 2009-11 by Lev

This is mainly a modification of HPK by DynAstY.
Thanks to all other HPK authors (OLO, DynAstY, shadow, EKS) - your plugins provided the base.

Features:

• Players with immunity and slot reservations won't be checked.
• At night max ping defined by different CVAR (so usually it will be higher).
• By default keeps min 3 players (bots and HLTVs are not included) at server if they are not exceed night max ping twice.
• Player is banned for 1 minute, not just simply kicked.

CVARs (Supplied values are defaults):

hpk_ping_max 175 ; maximum ping to check for at day time
hpk_ping_max_night 300 ; maximum ping to check for at night time
hpk_ping_time 10 ; interval at which ping will be checked
hpk_ping_tests 5 ; number of violations of maximum ping at which to kick
hpk_min_players 3 ; don't kick player if there is this count or less players (bots and hltv are not included) at server and player's ping doesn't exceed night ping twice.
hpk_night_start_hour 3 ; night period start hour (hour included)
hpk_night_end_hour 9 ; night period end hour (hour excluded)

How it is different from other HPK plugins:

• using pointers to CVARs;
• code flow is optimized;
• there is night period when ping defined by different CVAR, period also defined by CVARs;
• changes to max pings applies immediately;
• immunity for admins and slot reservations players;
• keeps min players at server (count defined by CVAR) if their ping is not too high (double night max ping);

Seriously, stop adding in modifications for HPK, there are so many. One after another after another, enough is enough. I do not support this, although I do like the nights.

[Flasher]

This is definetly not for you, so you can pass by.
Sorry.

PS I wish you tried to just compare and find difference between this and others HPKs.

[BOYSplayCS]

There are very few differences.

Also, banning someone for one minute virtually does nothing.

So you get them compared?

Why pay attention to this if it "virtually does nothing"?
For me it does something - players usually tries to reconnect so one minute allows them to cool down.

This isn't a place for flaming so I will stop now.

Sorry, man. I doesn't like flaming.
May be I should mention that I asked Hawk552 for permission to publish it.
Doesn't know will it be approved or not, but here it is.

Not all think that server should decide what are good settings for client connection. In other parts I think that "mine" is better.
I can suggest that punishing option can be added to be banid, banip or kick.
