E.g. you expect a max of 5 players playing Tetris at the same time; then generate 5 or a few more to be sure. </p><p></p><p>The \[interval] is in seconds. This will allow your server to keep up when generating a large number of schematics. E.g. generating 10 cells at the default rate of 2 seconds will take roughly 20 seconds.</p> | Player/Console |
