Subject: [hlds] Problems with CSS Surf Maps



I have a server with some performance problems and I
noticed that when running Surf custom maps for CSS
there are 100's of errors per minute in the console.

The error is something like Datatable Warning:... Out
of Range Value.. in Send Prop Float

This is bad scripting in the custom map I would think.
I have only seen this for people that run these custom
Surf maps and not other custom maps.

Can someone explain what this means and has anyone
else had this problem on CSS surf maps ?

Could this be the source of performance problems or
something else ?

Thanks for your info.

surf_egypt and surf_raceway take menial time to balance.
Hellv1 is generally ok.
genocide (if i remember the name correctly) is the worst offender I
came accross.

just as a little extra note, while we're here, the proper setting (the
one that makes most of the gaps the most do-able) is sv_airaccelerate
100. This is the only setting required for surfing.

The important thing which you can tell clients as a piece of advice
for surf maps is to look away from the prop-dense areas, this will
save your CPU useage and your bandwidth.

A good surf map would make some significant effort to try and provide
proper culling to prevent these issues.

 The bad thing about this I guess is that the server
 admin may not even know of these 100's of errors
 unless he has a direct view of the server console.

  I've seen this. The props have not been properly
  placed and along with
  the errors you will tend to notice massive server
  load as the physics
  works to make everything balance+/land.
