[ANY] Connection Flood Protection

**KyleS** · **Author**

What does this do?
If a player connects (by default) 6 times to your server in (again, by default) 12.4 seconds, they're banned for connection flooding.

There's already a standalone plugin that does this!
Awesome. Just PM me or post a link to it in this thread and I'll remove this. I know there's one from a while back that used static arrays (I can't find it, honestly I've looked). So if two players were constantly flooding they wouldn't be banned due to array limitations.

Why are there no cvars!
I originally wrote this for internal usage. However, since I can't find the existing one on here anymore. I figured I may as well post it on AM. If you (genuinely) want to configure a part of it, I can add cvars. However, modifying the defines at the top of the plugin is the easiest way. It's more of a set it and forget it plugin.

I think SMAC has antispamconnect but it just stops people from rejoining I think. Nothing this complex.

Looks good will give it a try

I think it duplicates one of the functions of Forlix Floodcheck:

this will still allow 2 or more people to connect from lan right?
the one in SMAC unfortunetly blocks everything.

Indeed. However, they'll be limited to three connections each (in 12.4s). I could add a work around for this (It would require either CBaseServer Tools or 'Connect').

Works fine for me, maybe You're not using the latest (1.71) version.

I made a mistake with the sm_banip command. Fixed in 1.5b

memory leak or normal? When the plugin first loaded it showed 8512 and 12 hours later increased that much.

Code:
