TF2 maxplayers / visiblemaxplayers

[dimitrifrom31]

Hi,

 

I got a TF2 server running and showing as 22 sltos whereas its set to 24.

When I do a rcon sv_visiblemaxplayers it says

"sv_visiblemaxplayers" = "22" ( def. "-1" )

Altho my sv_visiblemaxplayers is set to 24.

 

command line :

 

-console -game tf +ip X.X.X.X -port 27020 +exec server.cfg +maxplayers 24 -tickrate 100 +fps_max 600 +map ctf_2fort -tv_enable 0

 

The server.cfg is :

 

// server name
hostname "ServerName"

// rcon passsword
rcon_password "rconpassword"

// Server password
sv_password ""

When I type rcon sv_visiblemaxplayers 24 in console the server shows as 24 slots but if its restarted it goes back to 22.

Thats very annoying and I didnt find how to fix that, any idea?

Do you have SM enabled with reserved slots? or any plugins on the server at all?

[dimitrifrom31]

Ye nevermind I just figured that out and was about to post that issue was fixed.

 

Was a customer server and just saw he had 2 reserved slots but as he complained about the maxplayers I assumed (never overestimate customers knowledge I know) that the original server I provided had a slot issue. in fact thats just the plugin he added and kinda "forgot" to mention that the problem started after he tweaked his server.

 

Thanks anyway

No problem
