It just seems to depends on how long sv_tags is.

sv_tags aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

doesn't work, I can't connect from a lobby.

sv_tags aaaa

works, I can connect from a lobby.


An other issue, which seems to be unrelated to my server settings (sv_tags
and sv_allow_lobby_connect_only didn't change anything to it) :

Once you connect to the server through a lobby, if you leave the server, and
try to join it again from a lobby, it will just tell you "no dedicated
server found". I tried many times, and the only solution was to reboot the
server and it worked again, every time. That could be why your servers are
then empty.

(Of course to join my own server I use the sv_search_key)
