How many players can be killed in a vehicle at the same time? Vodnik holds 5, I think? How about the transport chopper?

This is for a plugin that detects multiple-kills from the same player with the same weapon within 1 second -- and kicks/bans on suspicion of hacking. Clearly, 16+ kills in one second by the same player with the same weapon is hacking, but what's a reasonable upper limit? Not 5 or less. Something between 6 and 16.

I think the chopper holds 6. The big AMTRAC holds a lot too - maybe 7?

dont forget a chopper pilot with 5 team mate aboard can crash the chopper on a squad of 4 making 10 kills at once (1 suicide, 5 teamkills and 4 kills)

The code will match for same weapon also, so the suicides and TKs won't be included.

However, it is possible to get the same weapon if there is collateral damage. Like if a full AMTRAC with two engineers outside repairing gets blown up with C4. I think that will all register as kills with the same weapon.

The max capacity appears to be 6 according to the BF3 wiki. So add a couple more as margin of error for collateral damage and anything greater than 8 seems like a reasonable upper limit.

Thanks!
