I will not give you an exact full working code since you should do some searching on your own, however I can tell you that OnPlayerUpdate is not called when the player is not in-game (paused or alt-tabbed).

Sometimes I see people doing this with GetTickCount() and then comparing times, but this isn't actually necessary. All you need is a variable that is getting reset in the OnPlayerUpdate callback and incremented in an one-second timer.

pawn Код:

new AFK[MAX_PLAYERS];

// ...

public OnGameModeInit()
{
    // Run a timer here
    SetTimer("CheckAFK", 1000, true);
}

// ...

public OnPlayerUpdate(playerid)
{
    // If the player just came back from being afk, the AFK variable is most likely more than 3/5 (vary this based on your gamemode and experience)
    if(AFK[playerid] > 3)
    {
         // This player just came back from being AFK
    }
    AFK[playerid] = 0;
}

// ...

forward CheckAFK();
public CheckAFK()
{
    // Suggestions for loop: either use foreach or at least define MAX_PLAYERS to your server's server.cfg amount!
    for(new i = 0; i != MAX_PLAYERS; i++)
    {
        if(!IsPlayerConnected(i)) continue;

        AFK[i] ++;
        if(AFK[i] == 3)
        {
            // The player most likely just went AFK!
        }
    }
}

Starting from around 5 seconds, you can also probably effectively tell for how long the player has been away from the game.

pawn Код:

format(string, sizeof(string), "%s(%i) has been away from keyboard for %d seconds.", PlayerName, playerid, AFK[playerid]);
SendClientMessageToAll(-1, string);

Perhaps I should make some sort of a library for AFK detection this way. Unsure at this point, but keep in mind the code probably does not work, but it should give you a good idea how it is supposed to work.

Maybe you can check if player pressed esc key?

Yeah pressing the key ESC, or ALT, TAB because most of the guys using that.

Good luck.
