That works fine for me too, except for getting random people.

It might be an issue with the server since I removed the searchkey and the
steamgroup (just to be safe. It's not exclusive), and left it that way for a
few hours, and nobody connected...
This is probably a question for a different conversation, but what could
cause that? I can see the server fine through the server browser (in
favorites), and myself and everyone I play with are able to connect to it
just fine. Could something in sourcemod be doing this?
