I was getting huge amounts of garbage printed to console on "round
finish" and massive lag spikes... Very unhappy players.
This only seemed to stop when:
mp_maxrounds 0
mp_autoteambalance 0
Sudden Death OFF / No Cvar
mp_allowspectators 0
Hope this helps if anyone else was getting this behaviour.

I don't know if this one was mentioned yet, but I just noticed that my
stock (no addons folder) MvM server reported having 0/6 players on it,
but wasn't letting me join.
Since it has sv_visiblemaxplayers 6, I decided to check the server
console... it reported 22 bots on the server and no players.
Why are the bots sitting there if all the players left?

T.
I believe it's a technical limitation that has no solution. The best you can hope for is
to separate out the port addresses each server uses by a fixed number. 20715, 20735,
20755, 20775 etc. Just don't make that number "5" since I seem to remember the
default stv port is 20720.
It's not such a huge ask to get your community to remember ports. You can social engineer
them to remember by adding the port to the motd, having "two-o-seven 55" nights.
What I do mind is the lack of DNS resolution in the Steam Community. If you
post a game address that depends on DNS no-one will be able to join the event
by clicking the link. Must be IP only to generate a link.

As far as I know, Source doesn't use DNS at all, it's completely
IPv4-address-based. Lookups are done at connect time or adding-to-favourites
time, completely by the client. There's no official or unofficial way to do
HTTP-style vhosting as far as I am aware.

Why would I want to vhost the default port?
I want to vhost so I can host multiple servers on the same IP without people
having to memorize ports.

Host A records map hostnames to IP Addresses. I don't believe
you can
specify ports.
What you'd probably end up doing is subdomain.lanified.com:65535
. If
you're using the default port (27015) your clients could just
type in
`connect subdomain.lanified.com`.
Thanks,
Kyle.

So if I make an A record for a subdomain, example:
subdomain.lanified.com -> record type A -> 255.255.255.255:65535
it will direct traffic accessing that (sub)domain to that
specific port?

As in, subdomains or domains resolving to specific ports.
You mean SRV support? (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SRV_record )
I don't think srcds/goldsrc engine currently support it, it's a
would be
nice feature :)
One thing you could do, is set an A record on the domain and do:
tf2.mygameserver.com:27015

We're fixing this for a release later today.
Also, we've found an issue with MvM servers that have a value set for
mp_timelimit. When the timelimit hits the server gets into a state that it
can't recover from. For now, you should set mp_timelimit 0 on MvM dedicated
servers. We're working on a fix for this, too.

This needs fixing immediately. Crashing too many times and it requires someone
to go and press OK.
