It would be nice to have a fix for this, also for the update to auto update our tf2 servers on map change like it should.
It's a huge pain, two of my dedicated boxes update pretty quick when there are tf2 updates ready and the other three boxes take sometimes an hour to fully update a few servers. Maybe I just need a script to download the updated files once then copy them to the servers itself so I only need to download the files once. > Date: Sat, 24 Oct 2009 20:27:21 +0300 > From: [email protected] > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] Updating servers RANT > > Yeah, usually when there is a problem, the people being in Europe have > that.
