Hi all,

Just been playing with A2S_INFO server query requests, following the  
documentation available on the Developer Community Wiki 
(http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Server_Queries 
) and I've been having some problems with certain TF2 servers  
responding with what appears to be a truncated or shortened A2S_INFO  
reply. Specifically, it would appear that certain servers only return  
data up until "Number of bots". FWIW, this breaks SRCDS.py 
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/srcdspy/ 
) and I would assume various other server query libraries.

Is this something other people have seen?

Is it legal for A2S_INFO responses to be shorter than the documented  
reply format on the Wiki?

Maybe the server administrator has installed some sort of mod to avoid  
returning what they deem to be potentially sensitive information such  
as server platform and/or game version?

Perhaps there is a (undocumented?) server side configuration option  
that I've missed which decreases the amount of information returned in  
a A2S_INFO reply?

Thanks.

-Chris
