[hlds_linux] Max players penalty
Hello, we are running a server with maxplayers set to 25, we have 1 reserved slot which gets emptied all the time. We have set sv_visiblemaxplayers to 24. The FAQ says: Increasing the max player count above 24 will incur a matchmaking scorking penalty, but will not disqualify you from the list. My question: do you respect the sv_visiblemaxplayers setting or do we get a penalty for having one reserved slot?

Re: [hlds_linux] Max players penalty
It has to do with the increased_maxplayers server tag.

Re: [hlds_linux] Max players penalty
Hi, I am wondering about the same question. We have our servers setup with reserved slots, but they are hidden. So essentionally most of the times the server is on the correct 24 player limit, although the maxplayers is configured as 26 to allow reserved slot owners to join without having to kick others out or constantly leave a slot open.

Re: [hlds_linux] Max players penalty
I have something similar and use sv_visiblemaxplayers as well. But recently I've been seeing things like 27/24 so it makes me think as though I'm being penalized because matchmaking puts more players on the server than it should.

I'm not seeing any indication of the match system sending any players to our servers.

Re: [hlds_linux] Max players penalty
Yes I'm aware of that. That's the issue, cause I tend to think my servers are actual as required. Maybe it should check maxvisible slots, instead of max slots. Saint K.

Re: [hlds_linux] Max players penalty
The quickplay thing doesn't work like it is ment to work. I've tried it now 5 times in a row, always ending up on 160ms+ ping server. So basically it's overcrowded, doesn't work like it should or there aren't free servers around here in Europe. May i remind that up to this day, L4D2 lobby search does the same thing. Only recently it started giving out less pinged servers. -ics 24.6.2011 21:48, 1nsane kirjoitti: The faq says that even with that quickplay will send players.

We have set sv_visiblemaxplayers to 24. The FAQ says: Increasing the max player count above 24 will incur a matchmaking scorking penalty, but will not disqualify you from the list. My question: do you respect the sv_visiblemaxplayers setting or do we get a penalty for having one reserved slot?

Re: [hlds_linux] Max players penalty
I threw up a random server for testing SM/MM:S and it's now full, and has been since 5AM PST. This most definitely saved the game where as before nearly everything would be dead in NA. Mind you from what I can tell they're German and French players. On Fri, Jun 24, 2011 at 12:21 PM, Tony Paloma drunkenf...@hotmail.com wrote: +1. Nearly 70k players.

Re: [hlds_linux] Max players penalty
It willl be a true experiment whether this will continue. I like putting up servers that stay full a week after an update. Therefore I am hesitant to add more. However I can. :D On Fri, Jun 24, 2011 at 1:50 PM, Kyle Sanderson kyle.l...@gmail.com wrote: I threw up a random server for testing SM/MM:S and it's now full, and has been since 5AM PST.
