Inventory Throttling

Note

• Inventory throttling will be calculated based on the target entity, individually for each API.
• For example, if a Player or a Title (game service, coudscript, etc.) calls an Inventory API to update the Player entity's inventory, the Limit (Player) throttling will be applied.
• Group entity inventories are also supported, and Group Entities share the same throttling rate as Player entities. See also Groups, guilds and clans.
