Sometimes, if the server has gone idle from a different gametype, we have to change the map once and then it takes our changes from the lobby. I can't confirm that it's platform-specific on Linux, but that's what we have. --Kerry On Jan 10, 2010, at 10:40 AM, Andy C wrote: I used to

I've noticed that as well. Occasionally a game will hold over the difficulty from a previous game. If a VS game was recently played, an Expert co-op lobby will start out in Normal difficulty when they join the server. On Wed, Jan 13, 2010 at 11:56 AM, Kerry Dorsey kdor...@dorseyinc.comwrote:

This isn't even retaining the map/mode of the last game. It's going to the server default (command line/server.cfg) and when we connect with a lobby it's keep the default settings. It doesn't happen all the time. Is there something I can put in the config that might help with this, or a mod for

Why wouldnt you allow connections from lobbies? It's the best way to join your server. Having everyone connect individually doesnt make a lot of sense. On Sun, Jan 10, 2010 at 8:41 AM, Christoffer Pedersen christof...@scanservers.eu wrote: Just asking now, why would you have a server with

Because my clanmates and I join the lobby, set things up and then join the server. Sometimes we can't get quite enough for a full game so we open it to pubbers to fill in the slots. On Sun, Jan 10, 2010 at 11:41 AM, Christoffer Pedersen christof...@scanservers.eu wrote: Just asking now, why
