Lua Will it cause a lot of delay?

Hi,
Will checking a position for players and IPs cause long delays in global events?
Checked every 10 seconds?

if not count[ip] or ip == 0 or player:getPosition():isInRange(Position(598, 872, 5), Position(615, 897, 10)) then

You are doing this check for all players in game right? Nevertheless, it won't cause reasonable delays. As long as you not looping 100k objects and not querying heavily database you are more than fine to check every 10 seconds or even less.

This particular line of code will execute extremely quickly(< 1ms). No problem to do this every 10 seconds, even in a loop of players. I'm guessing you're just kicking afk players, which if so, you should probably increase to every 60 seconds anyway, unless you have a specific reason to do this every 10 seconds (not that it really matters)
