Re: [hlds_linux] Server usage
There used to be serious lack of servers especially around this area where i live. I always was thrown into some 130ms+ servers far away from me when our servers where full (and i didnt want to kick familiar people off to join in myself). Also our servers got full constantly day and night. In last week, suddenly a lot of servers seems to have appeared and share the load. Now our servers get filled only during days and evenings and its all quiet late at night and at mornings. You propably have also a lot of servers available around that area. Valve seems to rank servers somehow according to their players count and server rank. You can see this if you go into your server and look that in-game banner. However, i dont see how this rank is fair since servers at some areas are more full than others due to more population and some just sit empty due to no one playing on them. Anyone know is there any kind of list where all servers can be seen in this rank or how the servers are actually ranked in that list? -ics Ryan Waye kirjoitti: > Then does anyone know what would cause my server to be ignored by the > matchmaking system?

Re: [hlds_linux] Server usage
Then does anyone know what would cause my server to be ignored by the matchmaking system? I've tried starting just vanilla servers and still no attempts to join. Normally I would assume a firewall issue (although that would be odd for a dedicated server box that we rent for the server), but if you join through the serverbrowser/groupid window it works fine. The only two things I change in the server config are the hostname and the map, set to l4d_vs_hospital01_apartment.

Re: [hlds_linux] Server usage
I've been running a couple of L4D servers (CentOS) since the demo came out. Very stock config, but I do have it associated with a Steam group. Server is east coast US. The first week the two servers will filled with ppl nearly 24/7. Now it's trailed off a bit, but still from about 10a to 2a EST, the servers are occupied.

I've commented out the groupid in the server's config file and after ~15 minutes of running a player has yet to join through matchmaking or otherwise. Is this typical?

Re: [hlds_linux] Server usage
I'm not positive, but I think one of the updates made it so that if you chose to bind your server to a group at all, the server would be removed from the matchmaking process whether steamgroup_exclusive was set or not. The exclusive flag comes into play because if it's not set, people outside the group will still be able to join if they happen to know the server information or if they join through the server browser. If you choose to set it to exclusive, then players must be a member of the group to even join.

[hlds_linux] Server usage
I am currently running one dedicated server on a Linux box, and I have noticed that it is rarely used. I will keep the console up to see the events going on on the server, and it seems that the majority of the time the server does nothing but send heartbeats to the master server. I can join the server through the serverbrowser and via the steamgroup interface (it is NOT steamgroup_exclusive) with no problems, so I don't believe the issue, if there is one, is technical. I suppose the question I need to ask is this: how often are your servers idling in comparison to their usage time? I expected that with the so-called "server communism" the demand for servers would drastically outstrip supply. And on a side note, I have my server starting on a versus map for convenience, but I don't really mind if it does versus or coop. Will the master server switch between the two if necessary? I see that if you go to the serverbrowser some servers have the "reserved" tag while many others do not. Is there some cvar that needs to be changed so that my server can be "reserved" for matchmaking? ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
[hlds_linux] Direct-connect versus-only server
Hello, I have a passworded server set up which we connect to directly using "connect" in the console. It is one of 8 forked servers. I wanted to make this a versus-only server, so I added "map l4d_vs_farm01_hilltop" to its cfg file and exec'd the file from the server console. This reloaded the config and the map changed as desired. However, once you are in the game, if you hit ESC and change the campaign, you can only choose from co-op maps. It appears that the versus maps do not show up in the campaign list no matter which mode you are playing in. What I would like o do is give our players the option of hitting ESC and switching to a different versus campaign. Is there a way to do this?

Re: [hlds_linux] FreeBSD fix for the crashing madness.
I was able to run L4D on FreeBSD 7.1-prerelease with the linux_base-f8 port. I don't run a public server, just one for friends. I have issues with the server with using -fork, but I'm guessing they're related to that I haven't done enough research into how to properly configure it. So, a single server, running, used occasionally. I probably don't use it enough to say whether or not it works well over time, but I suppose I could just launch one open to the public and find out. -Joe On Dec 1, 2008, at 3:00 PM, Patrick Lahni wrote: > Quoting kama <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > >> >> Hi, >> >> I have now healthy servers again on FreeBSD without crashes.

Re: [hlds_linux] Fork not working while single server is fine
How do you go about specifying a server as a versus/campaign server? As I see it, it depends on those who join through the lobby to control that kind of stuff. I'm guessing that your players just join without using lobbies though. Steve Sumichrast wrote: > Sami, > > I do this -- I have config files for each of my ten forks, and I load > the map there.

Re: [hlds_linux] Fork not working while single server is fine
Hmm I think I launch my forks with +map l4d_hospital_01 +exec server##.cfg (whatever the hospital name is), with another map name at the end of the server##.cfg file (tried map xxx and changelevel xxx), and it keeps hospital. I finally made a separate launch command to have vs servers next to coop servers Cold On Mon, Dec 1, 2008 at 3:43 AM, Steve Sumichrast <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Sami, > > I do this -- I have config files for each of my ten forks, and I load > the map there.
