DESCRIPTION¶
Set the max number of commands the interactive obj is allowed to execute per second to num. A negative value means ‘unlimited’ and is the setting for newly created connections.
If obj is not given, the current interactive is queried.
The function raises a privilege_violation (“set_max_commands”, obj, num). If the privilege is denied, the call is ignored.
A ‘command’ in this context means every received data packet which causes a LPC call - actions and calls to input_to(E) alike.
USAGE¶
To establish a mud-wide default for the maximum command rate, write connect(M) like this:
object connect() {
object obj;
...
set_max_commands(100);
return obj;
}
Upon return from the the function, the connection with its modified max_commands will be re-bound from the master object to the returned object.
