There are (currently) 4 slots reserved for spectators.
Yet there are 6 players on my server, and cannot connect as a spectator. Also can't change sv_visiblemaxplayers to 10, without it being forced to 6. Can you elaborate on how to allow up to 4 spectators to join if visiblemaxplayers is locked at 6?

Here's how it works: Bots should do not show at all in any client-visible way. (Although, they still show in the "status" output.) sv_maxvisibleplayers is slammed to 6 + {number of spectators}. In this scheme, your server appears to have space if a player can join and play on the defending team, it appears to be full if this is not the case. The existing server browser framework does not make it straightforward to clients connected as spectator from the player count. This logic was the best compromise. One final note: We discovered a small problem with today's update. If you have replay enabled, the above logic will think replay is a "spectator" and your server will show 7 max players. We'll fix this in an upcoming update. - Fletch _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux_______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
