AzerothCore: how to change the time after which client is disconnected when being idle?

Using AzerothCore, some clients stay logged for some time after shutting down che client application non-gracefully (e.g. pressing alt+f4 or killing the client process).

Is there a way to change this behaviour? For example reducing the time after clients get disconnected after being ide?

This is configurable in worldserver.conf:

#
#    SocketTimeOutTime
#        Description: Time (in milliseconds) after which a connection being idle on the character
#                     selection screen is disconnected.
#        Default:     900000 - (15 minutes)

SocketTimeOutTime = 900000

#
#    SocketTimeOutTimeActive
#        Description: Time (in milliseconds) after which an idle connection is dropped while
#                     logged into the world.
#                     The client sends keepalive packets every 30 seconds. Values <= 30s are not recommended.
#        Default:     60000 - (1 minute)

SocketTimeOutTimeActive = 60000

changing those settings will make it, then .reload config or restart the worldserver.

Be aware that:

Values <= 30s are not recommended.

so one user can still have the time to return online without side effects in case of client crash.

Thanks @Viste for the suggestion.
