Periodically get this warning on photon dedicated server:
What does it mean? And how to fix?

    How to increase Max Size For Parameter?

    found following code in sources:

    namespace Photon.SocketServer.Rpc.Protocols
    {
    public ref struct ReadContext
    {
    public readonly byte[] data;
    public int offset;
    public readonly CustomTypeCache PrivateCustomTypeCache;
    public readonly InboundController InboundController;
    public RequestMetaData MetaData;
    public ParameterMetaData ParamMetaData;
    public bool CollectSubTypesMetaData;
    public int ParameterMaxElementsCount;
    public int ParameterMaxSize;
    public short ErrorCode;
    public string ErrorMessage;

    public ReadContext(byte[] data, SerializeSetup setup, int offset)
    {
    this.data = data;
    this.PrivateCustomTypeCache = setup.PrivateCustomTypeCache;
    this.InboundController = setup.InboundController ?? Protocol.InboundController;
    this.offset = offset;
    this.CustomTypeId = (byte) 0;
    this.MetaData = new RequestMetaData();
    this.ParamMetaData = (ParameterMetaData) null;
    this.CollectSubTypesMetaData = false;
    this.ParameterMaxElementsCount = int.MaxValue;
    this.ParameterMaxSize = int.MaxValue;
    this.ErrorCode = (short) 0;
    this.ErrorMessage = string.Empty;
    }

    public byte CustomTypeId { get; set; }
    }
    }


    in constructor:
    this.ParameterMaxElementsCount = int.MaxValue;

    Are in PhotonPlugin has bug with this.ParameterMaxElementsCount = 10000; ???

    it is not documented feature in config.
    <Limits>
    <Inbound>
    <Properties>
    <MaxPropertiesSizePerRequest>10000/MaxPropertiesSizePerRequest> <!--by default-->

    Yes, we are still working on the docs for Photon 5.
    A description of the limits is here.

    Hi @PixelLord,

    Thank you for choosing Photon!

    Not sure which exact limit in configuration is related to the warning log message in your original post.

    In any case, here is the list of the LoadBalancing application settings.
    And @Tobias already linked to the brief intro about the limits newly introduced in v5.

    Let us know if something is not clear, incorrect or not up to date.

    hi, @PixelLord
    although your question is already answered I would like to warn you about allowing big requests.
    this opens an attack vector when hackers sends big properties requests. they are broadcasted to everyone in room and clients get overwhelmed.

    Even in your case with 10K size that is already can be dangerous for some of your clients. Especially for those who on wireless connections

    best,

    .

    I have seen this. This is has no default value about MaxPropertiesSizePerRequest configuration property, and makes it difficult to find.

    I understand possible attacks. We have only one specific property with large size (game map). And if detect attacks, we can filter this by plugin.

    If the Map is generated (and not player designed), it's recommended to make the generation code deterministic and share a seed value instead (which is much much leaner).
    If you can apply deterministic generation to at least a part of the map, this may reduce the need to send large files.
