It's like this now, open for suggestions for change.
receive limit = sent bots *2+10
sent limit = received bots *2+10

Can you explain how this is supposed to limit things? If we have a fast-running sim, which generates a lot of bots, then this algorithm does not seem to limit anything. The sim will send it's first 10 bots, get permission to receive (10*2+10)=30 bots, will receive them, get permission to send (30*2+10)=70 bots, will send those and so on.

Or am I missing something?

Mainly it'll limit the max ingoing bots for small sims to 2 times what they sent, so they don't get overflooded. Faster sims will be restricted to around 2x the average outbound speed.
Faster sims can only get to more and more permission to sent bots if there is another fast sim sending bots too. The idea was to let quick sims spread bots around if there are other quick sims.

Awesome, thanks Peter, I'll update.

Peter, for some reason I can not view "http://198.50.150.51:4668/viewsim/4770" either that, or it takes 4ever to load.

That sim is big, my guess is it's still loaded.

btw, I took the full IM sim temporarily offline.

I think I broke it somewhere, I restarted the server. Even after restarting, I can't manage to run that graph. Seems to be quite big.

(minor note, I'm using the inbuild python webserver which is not recommended to be run in production, just for development, performance won't be amazing to say the least, I plan to switch that to an actual webserver)

edit: restarted the webserver to be clear.

Sim 4770 got 142889 points to be drawn on a graph. Didn't think I had to limit the amount of points drawn for a sim graph. :|

Hmmm... now it does not seem to load at all. (Maybe I did not wait enough) What factors play a role on how long java script is supposed to load? Does Billy have an a graph update interval of 1?

No, it is default.

The population graph in the actual sim has only 950 d.p.
