Forums Scripts & Popups detecting netsplits

is there any way of detecting when a netsplit rejoins?

I have a limit script, which gets lagged real bad when a large netsplit rejoins, and sets the limit about 20 times.

Only by the number of joins that I know of. And in saying that there's every chance that it's not distinguishable - it depends on the size of the room you are in and how many actually depart when the split occurs.

maybe you can use a timer to set the new limit, say 10 seconds or something so you wouldn't re-set the limit over 20 times..

I nearly forgot: If you are an oper there is usually a server notice to indicate a synch/successful outbound connection so if this applies to you you could do something with that notice.

you could do something like

and then when someone joins, if the var is set for them, have it just clear the var and not do anything else
