[hlds] l4d missing key cvars: servercfgfile, mapcyclefile and bannedcfgfile

2008-11-18 Thread Steven Hartland
Seems l4d is missing servercfgfile and mapcyclefile cvars so how are
we meant to set these for l4d servers?

Obviously +exec sort of works for server.cfg but its not quite the
same as it doesn't exec on each map change.

Also in the other games bannedcfgfile was added to prevent the issue
of bans being lost in multi server installs this is also missing in
l4d.

Any chance of getting these back in or are there alternatives?

The most important one being mapcyclefile as I cant see any other
way of doing this in the current implementation :(

Regards
Steve

2008-11-18 Thread Robert Whelan
I asked about this before along with throuble I had with the demo, not one 
reply. Anyways, I'm using the switch servercfgfile to run mutiple server.cfgs 
and yes, its DOES report 'Unknown Command' but DOES LOAD the server.cfg I want.

Can you change these while the game is running?  It definitely works on the
command line...

Re: [hlds] l4d missing key cvars: servercfgfile, mapcyclefile and bannedcfgfile

2008-11-18 Thread Robert Whelan
I run it strictly as a commandline switch, haven't tried what your asking. Once 
the game is running why not just exec the select .cfg directly?
