Re: [hlds] Listing players and team membership on a TF2 server
As far as I know, there is no way to get a list of players and what team they're on with just an un-modded vanilla installation of tf2. (I should point out, I'm no expert) It is possible with sourcemod, this is not difficult at all, and would most likely not have to be maintained much. The functions used to get such a list have not changed in ages. The only maintenance you'd need is updating sourcemod when a tf2 update breaks it. This only happens a few times a year.

Re: [hlds] SteamPipe is coming. Download the TF beta
@fletcher, it's about 3 weeks ago that you estimated it would happen in 2-4 weeks Do you still think it will happen in the next 1-2 weeks or might it take longer than expected? The reason I'd like to know is that we'll be moving our servers to a new machine in the next 1 - 3 weeks (we should get access to the new machine in 1 week, and our current one expires in 3 weeks) If the move to steampipe happens within 3 weeks, it would be a waste of our time to copy/install the old kind of servers first, only to have to switch to the new kind of server a few days later - Wander On Wed, Feb 20, 2013 at 6:15 PM, Fletcher Dunn wrote: > The first thing to do is identify as many bugs as possible using the TF > beta. > > sv_pure needs to be fixed. > > Then we will probably roll out Day of Defeat or HL2:MP and confirm the > auto conversion works as well as we expect, so we don't have a huge number > of people all downloading a full 10GB at the same time. > > We're planning on releasing TF last. > > I suppose the timeline is around 2-4 weeks before TF is released?

Re: [hlds] Dealing with persistent cheaters
Remember that sourcemod, besides stuff like @red and @blue, also has @aim, so you can spectate someone who changes name non-stop, and then use "sm_ban @aim" to ban the person you are spectating On Thu, Feb 2, 2012 at 18:03, Lance Waidzunas wrote: > Sorry to chime in late, and if this has already been brought up, I > apologize... > > But is there anyway Valve could implement a minimum time between name > changes?

Re: [hlds] Forum vs. email list
Most forum email notification systems have the following problems: - The mail doesnt contain the message, but simply a link to the forums - You can't reply to the mail (and have that message be posted on the forums that way) - Mails arent grouped together (for gmail users), but each notification is a new entry in the inbox On Tue, Oct 25, 2011 at 02:40, Jake Haldeman wrote: > I think announcements are really nice in the list format, troubleshooting and > trolling seems to be better in a forum.
