📗 Dependecies

• CounterStrikeSharp

🎁 Main characteristics

• .NET built-in ConcurrentDictionary
• Internal logic based on Unix Timestamps
• Prioritization of const data types usage
• Calls for Clear(), ReduceMemory() and AddUserIDValues() during OnMapStart event in case EventPlayerDisconnect is not triggered on map change and some of the players will not connect back to the server, leaving the data stored in dictionaries
• No high overhead data types, no overflow or underflow and no useless memory allocs
• Making 1 Dictionary lookup before alloc instead of multiple lookups
• Big O time complexity of O(1) on average or O(n) in the worst case

🔵 Code changes

If you want to change general settings of the plugin:

• const byte MaxMessages = 3; - Max messages before blocking
• const long MinSecondsBetweenMessages = 5; - Min messages between messages to avoid PlayersTimestamp changes
• const string ChatAntifloodTAG = "Modders"; - Chat TAG for message

Caution

• Make sure you set MaxMessages value >= 3.
• In case of refusal you may need to do a code refactoring.
