-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] You guys are distorting the definition for sv_timeout. Quoting the DoD client cvar list (which includes server for obvious reasons) it states:
sv_timout, "65" <--- default, "After this many seconds without a message from the client, the client is dropped" I have experimented with what a 'message' is as a client, especially when trying to do something while idle on a server. As long as I crouched or shot my gun or jumped in the air every so often, i didn't get kicked. If I tried something like a voice_command bind, I got dropped. Having experimented with the sv_timeout on Monday the 26th (everyone was trying to adjust their video settings to gain fps, resulting in that repetitive pause for 60+ seconds sometimes), I feel confident that like Ricardo says, the sv_timeout value reverts back to the default after the map change, because I had extended the value via RCON ingame, and for that map only, people weren't dropping like flies. Try my aforementioned fix (previous email) and see if it works. --Ozz -------------- Original message -------------- > It shouldnt be related to sv_timeout and isnt supposed to be. > > sv_timeout is for when the server loses connection with that player...after > the specified amount of time the server will drop that player. > > mp_autokick is to kick players that dont give any keystroke or mouse input > after a certain amount of time.
