Please provide the following information

qBittorrent 4.1.9 and above

How is possible to stay allowed some connections from 1 ip, but limit number of seed-slots for 1 peer?
For example, i have in settings 50 connections, 10 per torrent, 25 seedslots and 5 slots/torrent.
I want to set allowed connections from 1 ip or 1 client, when someone want to dl at one moment 25 torrents etc. So i want to set the limit for 1 peer - no more then 3 torrents.

@thalieht I don't think you understood this request correctly. They're asking to limit the number of torrents a peer can download from them simultaneously, besides the slot limits they already set.
If this is the case, I don't think this is a feature that makes sense. It is not in the spirit of the BItTorrent protocol. As long as the connection limits are respected, the goals is to maximize used bandwidth, no matter which peer data is sent to. I don't think that file-locker-style "maximum simultaneous downloads" makes sense as a feature for a BitTorrent client.

I'm considering this resolved. Don't hesitate to open a new issue report if you have another feature suggestion or run into problems with the latest version.
