Re: [hlds] hlds Digest, Vol 32, Issue 24
Yeah, but part of the fun in trading. Is finding someone to trade with. It would't be very fun if you could just take an item you have, select an item you want, and just have them auto-traded... I, Personally think trading is a great thing for building social communities. While it may lead to a few people standing around in-game, it sure has brought a lot more attention to my communities forums. I don't see this as a serious issue at all.

If there was a button in the MainMenuOverride.res that link directly to a chatroom built with in the steam Overlay. That would solve and help this issue with players standing around, and or being kicked. As we all know trading isn't a really fast process, even tho you have made it a simple process to do. Players like to talk and after 1 trade it may lead to another which is time consuming. So you have these players standing around. A server admin doesn't really want to kick them knowing they will be back soon. They just are not sure how long it will be. In this chat room there would be NO voice chat possible, and txt chat would be time limited between messages (anti-spam). In this room players would highlight what they want (from a full list of trade-able items), or what they have to trade (from there own list). The others in the room could mouseover a player and instantly have a popup or dropdown window showing the items that player wants to trade. This would help speed up the process of trading. To help limit more Spam in chat, limit the chat to only when the players are connected to trade. Or better yet, have a checkbox in the window that a player could check and it would stop all chat except for when connected to another player to trade. This checkbox would be located on the chat room window. - Turn TXT chat OFF (Chat re-enabled when trading) On Sat, Oct 9, 2010 at 10:40 PM, [MP] Oh Noes! ohn...@maxpowergaming.xfactorservers.com wrote: Yeah, you got a good point there.

This does not stop the trading in game. It does however keep them grouped while trading (aka spec mode). So it could be helpful for keeping teams balanced, but then again you will still have those people basically afk while trading taking up a slot. Lets say you get 2 people trading, then get moved to spec. then 2 more start trading, and they get moved to spec. (lets be realilistic about this also. it's normally more than 4 people trading at 1 time anyway) Lets say we have 6 people trading at 1 time. They get moved to spec for being afk. So now you have almost a 1/4 of the players in spec trading. Out of the other 3/4 of the players some of them will leave (lets say 4 players) due to so many going or getting moved to spec to trade. So now we 1/2 a server playing.

[hlds] sys_ticrate in TCAdmin
Hello, I am trying to get the -sys_ticrate option to work in TCAdmin from the startline. When I put it in, it does not have any effect on the server. I already have the hrtimers enabled, the command still does not work. All servers run at whatever sys_ticrate is set in the server.cfg I need to be able to lock the FPS with -systicrate from the startline, but it is not working.

Re: [hlds] sys_ticrate in TCAdmin
I'm pretty sure there's an option in TCAdmin to block certain cvars from being used... at least, it can send angry emails and shut down servers for not having a password set for a 'private' server. You might be able to set it up to look for something in addition to sv_password?

Re: [hlds] sys_ticrate in TCAdmin
Ok I will look into it. It seems like this should work. I can confirm it works when running the server from the desktop, just not in TCAdmin. TCAdmin support of course will not help me with this issue, even though it seems apparent in only their panel. If someone has working TCAdmin config for setting sys_ticrate, please let me know.
