Valve changed the way the API works, this problem has been dealt with in AMX. Perhaps you should look at how AMX does this. (Or even use AMX?)

Many server admins have a reserved slot system going on to allow only admins connect into the final spot on the server. Valve nicely added sv_visiblemaxplayers to allow us to hide that reserved slot, but with the current system it can't be done. When people connect to a server they have a pending Steam ID, and their real ID is not assigned until a few seconds later. This means the only way of having reserved slots working is by allowing people to join the server then waiting to check. The major problem with this 99% of people joining on the last slot won't be admins and get kicked, which is rather rude IMO. Wouldn't a system where the ID is assigned before people join the server be better for situations, or even Valve supporting reserved slots directly. I only have a mod on for reserved slots, so perhaps this is a feature that should be supported directly. -- Wireplay Official http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
