All,
The MOTD thing was a pain in the beginning, before I found motdfile and
hostfile and now all is well.
But the main thing that gets is the autoupdate mechanism JUST DOESN'T
WORK. The server sits there saying it'll quit for update at the next map
change, except nobody can connect to it to change the map when it's out
of date. So it never updates.
Valve - can we get that sorted at least?
Cheers,
Chris

Speaking as a four-year veteran of Trader Joe's, that's really no excuse at
all.
Admit it, replacing of the motd file every update makes no doggone sense.
Which is why you use 'motdfile "custom_motd.txt"' in your server.cfg instead
of fighting with the updater.
It all just boils down to learning how to properly use the tools at your
disposal. Don't blame the Valve developers for your own incompetence. There
is already plenty of things we can legitimately blame on them.

Milton here on this list from Valve has previously stated that they run
around 40 instances per machine. Overall there are somewhat 2500-3000
servers total from Valve to L4D/L4D2.

day pointed out.
The release schedule, lack their off, poor timing Friday Evening (
the
biggest peek
play time ) and no notification is really beginning to grind. C'mon

we want the
updates but work with us here to help provide a quality service to
your
customers please!

Subject: [hlds_linux] L4D2 updates
Are doin my fkin head in. I've been very patient, but seriously,
what
the
fuck is up with the weekly, and sometimes twice a week. I really
can't
be
arsed anymore to host l4d2 due to this cycle. I've taken down all
normal
l4d2 servers, and just kept 2 10vs10 servers, which are on the same
"you
can
fuck off in a corner" nomination list.
Friday evening primetime each bloody week updates. Fucking hell who
came
up with this crap?
