"Search for valve dedicated server first, then try everyone else" was already the default behaviour. By giving people the ability to skip the search for valve servers, they have in fact increased the chance of your server having people in it.
However, since the last l4d patch, and continuing in the (unannounced) patch tonight, my (Linux) servers have been empty. Since the patch before _that_, typing "setmaster" has shown an empty list (despite the startup log mentioning 2 master servers), which I needed to workaround by setting them manually in server.cfg. Are both these behaviours still the case for everyone else? > -----Original Message----- > From: hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds- > boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of mu...@anbservers.net > Sent: 14 March 2009 05:59 > To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com > Subject: [hlds] L4D Client Update > > Lobby leaders can now specify in lobby settings whether to search for > an official dedicated server or for the best available dedicated > server.
