No, there's no way to revert the damage caused by the mistake. Say a user has two of your game servers on their favorites list. One with IP 1.1.1.1 and another with IP 2.2.2.2. What happens is the Steam client initially sees the server at IP 1.1.1.1 has game server account 1 set, so it records that. It also sees 2.2.2.2 is not logged in with a game server account, so it makes no change to that entry. Then after some time your game server at IP 2.2.2.2 restarts and logs in to account 1, stealing it from IP 1.1.1.1. Eventually, Steam clients will see this and update the 1.1.1.1 entry to 2.2.2.2 which means they lose the 1.1.1.1 entry. This is the intended behavior of the current design. Essentially you can only have one entry in your favorites list per game server account.

However, it still requires me and anyone else to manually re-add the servers that disappeared. That has had a huge popularity hit. Did this faulty configuration really cause every single player who entered the server to get the server permanently deleted from their favorites? Is there any way to revert that? ________________________________ Date: Sun, 9 Mar 2014 13:56:21 -0700 From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: [hlds] TF2 servers disappearing from favorites and losing Steam connection Tony can you add the sv_registration_message and sv_registration_successful counterparts for steam accounts? It would be useful to debug these issues.

Also, servers are losing connection to the registered Steam account after only like 30 minutes or so. Connected clients also get dropped at random with error code 6. Is anyone else having this issue? _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds
