Ping Kicker - Addon - Garry's Mod

This addon is designed to kick people from your game/server who have high pings over 400. So it saves you from kicking them. It kicks with the message, "Auto-Ping kicked (Ping 400+)" Just put it in: (gamemodename)>gamemode>init Link: [url]https://github.com/mistypanda1234/Ping-Kicker[/url]

Find server with this > DDos Server > Makes everyones ping above 400+ > Sit back and laugh how the server just got empty. Ps. I'm not saying I will do it, I'm saying someone can go and abuse this.

Why would you kick someone for having a high ping?

[QUOTE=LennyPenny;45123889]Why would you kick someone for having a high ping?[/QUOTE] ^ This isn't CSS or CSGO Or Half life 2 Deathmatch.... You don't kick for high ping in Garry's mod because last I check it doesn't effect anyone.

Most of the time people gets high ping (sometimes 0% accurate) because of the server itself.

But anyway, low ping is always better than high ping, and can make a difference in your gameplay. People tend to be much easier to kill at low ping. You don't want people dunno going around lagging on your screen.

Kicking players with high pings is completely pointless.

Have a brain and think about what you're trying to do.

Interesting idea, it can be a bit unfun when someone has 900+ ping and you can't kill them or whatever. Although often when people have high ping, it's usually just for small periods of time before they drop back down again, which might get a little irritating.

I don't really see this as being a bad addon, it really is dependent on what game-mode it is being used in. Now I do think you should give players a certain amount of ping checks and then kick them based on that. Also you should be as lenient as possible with this , I have horrible HORRIBLE internet, and so does the majority of america. If this is to strict it can kill off your player base.

No, America shouldn't have to do better (although I wish we could, please?), you need to try and be as inviting and open to players who are doing you the honor of playing on YOUR server. They don't need you believe it or not, you need them, and if you're kicking them left and right for "High Ping", which doesn't really matter whatsoever in Gmod when hit-detection is shit half the time anyway, then you're losing the majority of your players. Not to mention because it's summer, a lot of the kiddies are out 24/7 and sit inside on their PC's all day, think of all the obese American kids who will have to join another server because they get kicked for high ping?

It [B]won't[/B] make your server run slower (most of skids say it will) or it won't crash your server in any way. [B]LATENCY of USERS doesn't affect SERVER perfomance at all[/B]. High ping won't make you harder to kill, but will make it harder for you to kill others. So uh, there's absolutely no need to kick people with high ping.

I first read this as Pig Kicker :suicide:

[QUOTE=Viewer;45144360]I first read this as Pig Kicker :suicide:[/QUOTE] Nobody cares.

Anyone else look at the code for this? [quote]local pinglimit=[B]1[/B] ... if pl:Ping()>pinglimit then pl:Kick("Auto Ping-Kicked(Ping 400+)")[/quote]

[QUOTE=MistyPanda;45124300]At least you support me, unlike all these Vixens. On my first get addon…[/QUOTE] I like the idea because servers cost money to run and massive player slots cost money and if the server is really good and people put money to it then u dont want that 400+ ping guy running around trying to stuff up peoples work for example like darkrp or advance sandbox servers well mostly darkrp but still nice work man keep up the good work :goodjob:

So, what happens when someone prop spams and causes everyones ping to spike to 400, you just gave minges a tool to kick your whole server :godzing:

You would make it so they would not be able to make it spike peoples ping to 400 what i am trying to get across is that he came up with somthing and there is a way to get around alot of things people make but it is harder to exploit or minge all he has to do is add security to it and if they do get spiked it will save there progress. People just got to remember to think out of the box and not to give up

I don't agree with an addon like this, but damn, give the kid some slack.

Got to start somewhere

If I may make a suggestion from the comments above, to stop someone from just ddosing you to raise pings you could check all of the players pings to make sure that it is just that player is having a ping issue. If the average ping is (for example) 50ms and a players ping is 500 then kick, but if the average ping is 300-500ms then don't kick them as it must be a server-wide issue.
