RL-BadGameserverProtection.ps1

Block bad Rocket League gameservers temporarily.

This script identifies Rocket League gameserver IP while joining, gets its average ping out of three and adds a temporary Nullroute if the ping is above a defined threshold.

Launching

Launch an elevated Powershell and execute the script:

.\RL-BadGameserverProtection.ps1

If the gameserver is declared good, this is the expected output:

Gameserver found:    1.2.3.4
Average Ping:        36ms
Packets Lost:        0/3
Have Fun!

If the gameserver is declared bad, this is the expected output:

Gameserver found:    4.3.2.1
Average Ping:        96ms
Packets Lost:        2/3
Adding Nullroute for 4.3.2.1 on Interface #3 for 600 Seconds

Notes

• Keep in mind that the logic of this script does not protect against gameservers with good ping but high packet loss.
• The icmp response time and the ping displayed in game can vary by ~20ms. You can play with the -PingCutoff parameter to accommodate this if you are still getting too high ping.
