Thanks guys. We're already running SM on the servers. Couple of nice mods in there though I wasn't aware of the Sourcebans mod, will look into that one. How about some monitoring software? Is there anything that I can leave running on my desktop or android device to keep a check on what's going on?

For the values that influence Team Fortress 2, just type in console tf_ and see what you can get. Sourcemod is a must because you can have admins and enhance the gameplay with plugins, for example a better map cycle etc. 2012/8/12 ics <[email protected]>: > Something to read about: > > https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=2825-AFGJ-3513 > > Usefull plugins/mods to have: > > Sourcemod, http://www.sourcemod.net/ > Sourcebans, http://www.sourcebans.net/ (especially if you have > multiple servers, runs on sourcemod) Automatic anticheats, runs on > sourcemod.
