RE: [hlds] %n - Change your nickname today!
I think the bug is as following: When a client dies , he send a deathMSG containing name of player he got killed by and her own name. This message is broadcasted to ALL players. When a pirate client that have the name bug , get the message , it goes as following: Name: %n-abc (oops! nick contain % and need to be altered) Alterations: 1: %n-abc 2: %n-abc-abc (change %n to current nick) 3: %n-abc-abc-abc 4: 10: %n-abc-abc-abc-abc-abc-abc-abc-abc-abc-abc and so on , and this is called for an infininte loop. I think the update of the game does not allow alterations of nicks if not name command is executed or server requires it. _ Hitta rätt på nätet med MSN Sök http://search.msn.se/ ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds

Doesn't matter though, the system dynamically generates the file, making it generate heaps of files would be a pain - especially when VALVe are working on a fix for it. Hopefully sometime soon it'll work again, until then we just will have to live without a banning system I guess (larger GSP issues, not enough time in the day to program extra stuff and do maintenance on heaps of servers :/). - Bruce Bahamut Andrews David Fencik wrote: What is the filesize of your banned.cfg?

In other words, you are incorrect in saying that the connect time rises a little millisec for every ban. The more bans there are, the less of a difference each additional ban makes. The time to exec the banned.cfg file, however, will increase in the manner you described.

RE: [hlds] Number of allowed bans too small?
Bans is data too. They take space like other files. Ram memory on the computer is requiring to have the game running , not banning people. HL-servers aren't for banning people all the time. They are used to have an central connection point for gamers to play to each other. Do an ban clean each month and then your files will kept in a good size... This is my trick I have a software that runs on thje last day in a month , this deletes the ban file and reloads the CFG:s. You know , to store steam IDs and names of people you dont want in your server , this must be stored as 1:s and 0:s like other gaming data , and they take space too. All text images and whatever takes space. Save the resources , dont ban like an automated process that bans 1000 people per second Be nice to players Theres a limited number of players. If you ban all players your server will be empty. _ Hitta rätt på nätet med MSN Sök http://search.msn.se/ ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds

A very effective function , it works on most Invicible hacks too I think the hacks is bad coded or anything Cheaters leave when they always get killed by SLAY. It works for me. You must be nice to the server. Loading a 5 MB big banfile is not good for any server's performace. The connect time rises a little millisec for every ban. Then the server must search 5 MB of data. It much. Its 5.000.000 characters * with 8 is 40.000.000 BITS , also 1:s and 0:s. THis is much of searcing for EVERY PLAYER THAT CONNECT! If you manange to bigger up the buffer , every users will TIMEOUT because a banlist that is getting T large. You know the client waits max N seconds for a accept of connection. If searching the banlist and initalizing the socket takes MORE time than N seconds , it will refuse connection and client will drop. My tip is , SPARE on bans. use other functions like BURY (adminmod) , SLAY (AMXMODX). And lets take a good example to get rid of a cheater. player: !^abc^! cheats!!! player(2): Yes! Bomberman: Ban him! He is using wallhack! admin: I can see what i can do CONSOLE DOWN admin_execclient !^abc^! connect A SERVER IP [ENTER] CONSOLE UP !^abc^! left the game. Yeah , its called REDIRECT and is a very good function to get rid of a cheater Seach up a cheater-only server and note its IP and then HAPPY REDIRECTING _ Hitta rätt på nätet med MSN Sök http://search.msn.se/ ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
